Antique Map of Jura, a Famous Wine Area in France, 1854
About the Item
Antique map titled 'Dépt. du Jura'. Map of the French department Jura, France.
Jura is a department in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region in Eastern France. Named after the Jura Mountains, its prefecture is Lons-le-Saunier. Its subprefectures are Dole and Saint-Claude. In 2016, Jura had a population of 260,517. It has a short portion of the border of Switzerland.
The famous Jura wines are very distinctive and unusual, such as Vin Jaune, which is made by a similar process to sherry, developing under a flor of yeast. This is made from the local Savagnin grape variety. Other grapes include Poulsard, Trousseau, and Chardonnay. The whole is surrounded by elaborate decorative engravings designed to illustrate both the natural beauty and trade richness of the land.
There is a short textual history of the regions depicted on both the left and right sides of the map. This map originates from Atlas National de la France Illustré by V. Levasseur.
Published by A. Combette, Paris, 1854.
