Wine Region: Jura- France
Grape: 100% Savagnin.
Tasting notes: "This Vin Jaune has been aged under a yeast layer for six years. The resulting wine has a strong tangy character, intense acidity. old-wood concentration and extraordinary richness.
The first nose is intense and powerful, aromas of dry fruits and spices predominate. Then it is more roasted, with almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, pepper, morels and minerality." Winemakers' notes

How to enjoy: Recommended for typical Franche-Comté dishes, but also very good with exotic cuisine, especially spicy curry dishes.
