Discover the grape variety: Savagnin
Vivid, structured whites with a golden robe, taut mouthfeel and sharp acidity, with aromas of apple, citrus, green walnut, curry, spices and intense oxidative notes (vin jaune aged under a yeast veil) evoking walnut, roasted almond and the distinctive "goût de jaune". The absolute star of Château-Chalon AOC, Arbois AOC, l'Étoile AOC and Côtes du Jura AOC. A very ancient Jurassian autochthon, probable ancestor of many European varieties.

The wine region of Arbois
First historic French AOC (1936) at the heart of the Jura: Trousseau and Poulsard signatures as light, fragrant native reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry and a hint of spice, fine tannins. Savagnin emblematic as an oxidative white under veil — dry and taut with notes of walnut, curry, almond and green apple, a unique Jura signature. Topped-up Chardonnay as a broad complement. Vin Jaune and Vin de Paille as age-worthy gems.
The wine region of Jura
Unique Franche-Comté region between Burgundy and Switzerland, incomparable oxidative identity. Signature mythical Vin Jaune from Savagnin: aged 6 years 3 months in cask under flor, intense whites with signature green walnut, curry, cumin, russet apple, honey and lingering iodine — 62 cl clavelin, century-long ageing. Also classic topped-up Chardonnay (citrus, butter), pale light Poulsard red (strawberry, undergrowth), dense Trousseau, fine Pinot Noir. Sweet Vin de Paille.
