Jura lies immediately to the east of Burgundy, and shares many of the same climate characteristics as its neighbour to the west. The region's local varieties, namely the distinctive Savagnin and Poulsard, are its best ambassadors. Other vine varieties found here include Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Trousseau, a fairly rare local grape.

Savoie is an alpine region home to a rich tapestry of local grape varieties such as Altesse (also known as Roussette), Jacquère, Mondeuse, and Chasselas. Savoie produces much more white wine than red or rosé, and typically its wines are light, refreshing and crisp.
