Domaine de la Renardiere Vin Jaune 0.62L 2018

Domaine de la Renardière Vin Jaune 2018 is an organic, non-sparkling white wine from Pupillin in France’s Jura region, made exclusively from Savagnin. Presented in the traditional 0.62-litre clavelin bottle, it is a distinctive expression of Jura’s historic oxidative winemaking style, prized for its remarkable complexity, longevity and unmistakable character.

Tasting Notes
The wine displays a deep golden-yellow colour. Its aromatic profile is richly layered, combining dried fruit and warm spice with the distinctive savoury, nutty nuances associated with Vin Jaune. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet elegant, with a broad, developed texture and a persistent finish that invites slow, contemplative enjoyment. This is a wine built for ageing and can continue to evolve gracefully in bottle for many years under suitable cellar conditions. Its depth and structure make it especially rewarding when served alongside richly flavoured dishes.

Production
The Savagnin grapes are grown around Pupillin within the Arbois-Pupillin area of the Jura, a region renowned for distinctive white wines with impressive ageing potential. Domaine de la Renardière farms its vineyards according to organic principles, seeking to express the character of the local terroir. Following fermentation, the wine is matured for six years and three months in partially filled casks without topping up. A natural layer of yeast develops on the surface, allowing the wine to undergo a long, oxidative maturation that contributes to its complex aromas, generous palate and refined texture.

Food & Serving
Vin Jaune is a classic partner for mature cheeses, walnuts and dishes featuring mushrooms. It is also excellent with creamy preparations based on fish or poultry, where its richness and savoury complexity can stand up to the sauce. Serve lightly chilled at around 14–16°C. Decanting is not essential, but a brief decant or generous time in the glass can help reveal its full aromatic range; an opened bottle can also develop beautifully over the course of a meal.

Producer
Domaine de la Renardière is based in Pupillin, in the heart of the Jura, and works organically to express the region’s distinctive terroir. Its Vin Jaune reflects the area’s long-standing tradition of ageing Savagnin beneath a natural veil of yeast in partially filled casks. The traditional 0.62-litre clavelin bottle further connects this wine with Jura’s unique winemaking heritage.
