This historic estate has been run since 2022 by Comte Pierre-Armand de Laguiche, who took over from his father Alain. The 16ha of vineyards in Arlay lie mainly on mixed marls below the ruined hill-top castle. There has been a decade of much-needed improvement in the vineyards (now organic) and in the winery, while the wine range evolves little. It includes a fascinating pink-ish cuvée named Corail, made from a blend of all five Jura varieties, and the star Vin Jaune and Vin de Paille.
