Le Garde Corps 2019 is a natural wine crafted by Tony Bornard, in the Jura region in France. This red wine is made with  100% Trousseau grapes, and we hear this is a rather full-bodied and spicy Trousseau, with tannins and a beautiful structure. It will age well, as its name suggests.

The grapes for Le Garde Corps is from a vineyard in the Pupillin region known as "La Bidode," planted in 1988, which feature 4 different types of Marl stones.

Alcoholic fermentation and maceration starts in stainless steel tanks. Punching and pumping over is then once a day for one month. Aging in barrels then in stainless steel tanks again. Bottled on July 9, 2020, unfiltered, without added SO2, and with its natural fermentation gases. No added sulphites and then at least 2 years aging in the bottle at the domaine before release. This bottle you see here was aged at the domaine and shipped to us in November 2025.

We are excited to try it shortly!

TONY BORNARD DOCUMENTARY

One of our first documentaries many years ago was with Tony Bornard, at a time when he had just build his new winery in Pupillin, and literally in the process of moving barrels in from the old cellar of Philippe Bornard into the new place up the road. This process of change was an important period for Tony Bornard and he opens up about this and the emotional aspects related to it.

We ship every Wednesday. Order by Tuesday 10am.

NATURAL WINES BY DOMAINE BORNARD | TONY BORNARD

Philippe Bornard evolved Domaine Bornard in 2005, as a close friend and neighbor to the legendary Pierre Overnoy in the Jura wine region in Pupillin. Now run by his son Tony Bornard, the estate continues to produce wines with a distinctive Jura character, while Tony adds his own unique touch, steering the wines in exciting new directions.
Sustainably farmed, Bornard’s wines are easily identifiable thanks to their labels featuring a ginger fox. Some of their standout bottles include Le Ginglet, Chassagnes, Le Vin de Ploussard, and the exceptional Bornard Vin Jaune. Watch our video on Tony Bornard and see all the wines here
