Patrice Jacquin, Edmond’s son, is a busy man as he is mayor of the village of Jongieux. In his spare time he continues the legacy of his late father, Edmond, by continuing to produce elegant grand crus, unique to this part of Savoie. Some barrel ageing is done on occasions, but most of the wines are kept in modern tanks. The excellent Marestel cru, has aromas of brioche and honey rich, a full-bodied mouth feel, and good aging potential. Other Jongieux wines include the domaine’s specialty the Marc de Savoie, which is still aged in oak barrels. Tel 04 79 44 02 35 www.edmondjacquin.com
