Creation of the Fruitière Vinicole d'Arbois on 04th January under the impetus of 31 Arbois winegrowers, one of the first cooperative wineries in France. This project was initiated in the wake of the phylloxera crisis, with the aim of resisting competition from low-quality wines of no origin. Determined to offer its customers the very best Jura wines, the cooperative chose to pay its winegrowers according to the quality of the grapes they brought in, through a strict selection process.

Purchase of the Maiziere house, in which the Fruitière will set up for 50 years (this is the current shop in Jean Jaures road).
