Importers thoughts - This Savagnin from the ‘Le Châtaignier’ vineyard is grown on a 1959 vineyard. 

This Savagnin from the ‘Le Châtaignier’ vineyard is grown on a 1959 vineyard. The nose seduces with its floral and mineral notes, with an aromatic intensity rarely found in non-Burgundy whites. On the palate, the structure is full and round, with a beautiful freshness that gives it a racy elegance. This complete wine seduces with its depth and energy, reflecting Pierre-Vincent's expertise. This cuvée is ideal for lovers of atypical white wines, off the beaten track, who know how to combine Burgundian tradition with Jura audacity.

100% Savagnin Harvested by hand, in whole bunches. Undergoes a long maceration and 12 months of ageing in 456-litre oak barrels (30% new), without filtration, followed by 8 months in stainless steel vats.
