Buy Wine from Maxim Lannay
Maxim Lannay is the name of the producer behind the natural wine project located in Saint-Cyr-Montmalin in the Jura region of France. The work is intense with largely old-school techniques. Despite his young age, Maxim has rubbed shoulders with Domaine Gérard Villet and Domaine de l'Octavin for eight years. He has been in the right place to learn the craft of oenology from up close.
Maxim Lannay's vineyard
This winegrower has about 0.7 hectares spread over four vineyards. He plants pinot noir, chardonnay, gamay, poulsard, savagnin and rosette, a hybrid red grape that he blends with chardonnay for the L'avant Match cuvée. His style is unique, enthusiastic, something you can feel in every sip. The entire vineyard is done by hand, following biodynamic principles, although their fields are not certified. Maxim treats the weeds by buying green scavengers, such as natural fungicide, sheep manure and buried rubble, so as to nourish the soil naturally.
When he started in 2017 the frost played a trick on him and took almost all of his first harvest. Not enough grapes, not enough wine. A year later, everything was different. It can be said that he still has a long way to go to keep on surprising.
Maxim Lannay's wines
The result is very powerful natural wines, with a lot of personality, which combine a very low yield and a lot of work in the vineyard. Of course, they are bottled without sulphites, without filtering and without fining. In the winery, they work meticulously, respecting the natural process, and the wines are left to ferment on their own - spontaneously - with indigenous yeasts. Their chardonnay, Don't take my Coconnuts 2018, for example, is made by macerating the skins for two months, and is aged for 12 months in used barrels.
