Marcel Cabelier L’Etoile Chardonnay 2023
As seen this weekend at the 2025 i4C conference in Niagara. L’Etoile is a very small Appellation within the Jura region, so named because the area encompasses 5 hilltop villages arrayed in the shape of a star. In addition, the limestone rich soils contain marine fossils of tiny pentracines (star fish). Aged for 18 months in oak barrels (70% new), it displays a deep golden hue in the glass. On the nose the wine exhibits intense aromas of baked golden apple and ripe pear with notes of spice, honey, hazelnuts and vanilla. A subtle oxidative note characteristic of Jura white wines leads to a mineral driven, rich, creamy and full-bodied finish.

Marcel Cabelier Vieilles Vignes Pinot noir 2023
On feature at this years’ 2025 i4C conference in Niagara. The VV cuvée is created from fruit harvest from some of the regions oldest vines. A deep ruby colour, the bouquet reminds one of ripe cherries and strawberry jam complimented by exotic Asian spice and a distinct earthy note. On the palate, the firm yet silky tannins are velvety in the mouth and lead to a lingering finish of red fruits. This represents excellent value in a complex old world Pinot Noir. .
