Domaine de la Pinte Savagnin Arbois

2% of all French wine is produced in the Jura. They are special wines. Often from local grapes and in a local style. Like this organic wine from Savagnin grapes. This is usually used to make bone-dry, oxidative Vin Jaune. Not this time. Domaine de la Pinte gave it a classical wood education and let it mature in the cellar for eight years.

It still seems young. We smell exotic fruit. We recognize the wood maturation. We taste the bone-dry citric acidity that we know from Vin Jaune. But this is very different. Because we also note ripe yellow plums and a lot of strength. Teaching material for wine freaks. Study with a piece of spicy cheese or firm fish.
