This 13th-century Gothic convent, abandoned by the Jacobins (Dominicans) after the Revolution and nabbed by the vignerons of Poligny in 1907, makes for an unforgettably atmospheric place to sample the wines of Jura. Gone are the hymn books, and in their place are not only colossal barrels of savagnin, chardonnay and vin jaune (barrel-matured regional wine), but also expositions of local art.
Seasonal closures are possible in winter – if so, head to the delis and ´Ú°ù³Ü¾±³Ù¾±Ã¨°ù±ð²õ (cheese shops) lining place des Déportés.
