Tony Bornard Estate – The Bold and Pure Spirit of Jura Wines

A Key Figure in Jura’s Wine Renaissance

Tony Bornard is one of the leading winemakers shaping the modern image of Jura wines. The son of the renowned Pierre Overnoy and a rising star in natural winemaking, Tony continues the family legacy while forging his own path. Based in Pupillin, within the Revermont region, he cultivates his vineyards using organic and biodynamic principles, producing expressive and living wines.

An Exceptional Terroir in the Heart of Jura

Located in Pupillin, one of Jura’s most famous villages, the estate benefits from marl and limestone soils that give the wines remarkable mineral complexity. The cool climate and varying altitudes allow local grape varieties—Savagnin, Ploussard, Trousseau, and Chardonnay—to develop intense aromatic profiles and refreshing acidity. Each vineyard parcel is carefully tended to preserve the authenticity of the terroir.

A Natural and Uncompromising Approach

At Tony Bornard Estate, respecting nature is at the core of every decision. All grapes are hand-harvested, and fermentations occur naturally with indigenous yeasts, with little to no added sulfur. Depending on the cuvée, aging takes place in tanks, barrels, or amphorae, allowing the wines to fully express themselves without filtration or fining.

Vibrant and Highly Expressive Wines

The wines of Tony Bornard stand out for their energy and aromatic depth. The whites, primarily made from Savagnin and Chardonnay, offer bright acidity and complex notes of dried fruits, citrus, and flint. The reds, dominated by Ploussard and Trousseau, are delicate yet structured, with flavors of fresh red berries and subtle spice. Every bottle is a true reflection of Jura’s instinctive and free-spirited winemaking.
