Jacques Maillet

Alpine Savoie producer of Pinot Noir, Gamay, and Altesse-based wines.

Jacques Maillet works in Savoie, the Alpine region where cool-climate viticulture shapes distinctive white and red wines. The winery's portfolio centers on regional varieties: Pinot Noir and Gamay for reds, Altesse for whites. The Chautagne Pinot Noir, a flagship expression, draws from the region's mineral soils and diurnal temperature swings to build structure and precision. Autrement Blanc, made from Altesse—Savoie's signature white grape—offers the aromatic intensity and crisp acidity the variety is known for. The Chautagne Rouge, built on Gamay, reflects the lighter, fruit-forward character typical of the region's reds. Wine Advocate and Wine Spectator have rated the portfolio.
