Treat yourself to two days in the heart of the Jura vineyards and discover Arbois, the capital of Jura wines and a small town that is not lacking in charm, nor in restaurants where you can discover the Franc-Comtois gastronomy. On the programme: cellar visit, wine tasting and a walk in the vineyards.
What could be better than staying in a beautiful flat in the heart of Arbois, the capital of Jura wines?
The apartment hotel l'Atelier is spacious and bright, with a breathtaking view of the central square of Arbois. You will enjoy feeling almost at home and living your stay at your own pace.
You can then set off to discover the town thanks to the Pasteur tour which takes you in the footsteps of the famous scientist.
At the end of the afternoon, Michel-Henri and Françoise at Domaine Ratte will welcome you for a guided tour of their cellar and a tasting of their wine.
Of all the domains in the Jura, Domaine Ratte is without doubt one of the most advanced in terms of sustainable agriculture. Biodynamic viticulture is an art that the owners will explain to you in detail and with passion.
In the evening, a dinner at the Bistronôme restaurant awaits you. Sit on the bistro benches and enjoy a magnificent view of "La Cuisance" through the large bay window.
The cuisine they offer is gourmet, sensitive and "real". It evolves according to the seasons, the products, the associations and the textures.
The next day we suggest a walk along the vineyard path, to discover the Corvées and Curon terroirs, which produce excellent wines. These slightly sloping hillsides perfectly illustrate the essence of the Jura terroir: sunshine and low altitude, stony soils on deep marl, below a limestone ledge.
Then, have lunch at the restaurant La Finette, this tavern in Arbois has become a real institution in Franche Comté. The atmosphere is warm with varnished wooden log tables around a barrel, large tables and a vaulted cellar. This typically Jura decor is the ideal place to enjoy Jura and Franche Comté specialities.
