Maison du Vigneron Vin Jaune Cotes du Jura 2018

Maison du Vigneron Vin Jaune Côtes du Jura 2018 is a classic expression of Jura’s most distinctive tradition, made from Savagnin and aged in the region’s signature oxidative style. Built for lovers of characterful, complex white wines, it offers a rare glimpse into one of France’s most historic and individual wine regions.

Tasting Notes
This Vin Jaune typically shows a deep golden color with a vibrant, concentrated appearance that hints at its long élevage. The nose is layered and expressive, often opening with walnut, curry leaf, dried citrus, spice, and toasted almond, followed by more savory notes of mushroom, apple skin, and a subtle oxidative nuance. On the palate, it is dry, powerful, and intensely textured, with bright acidity carrying flavors of salted nuts, dried fruit, spice, and a distinctive mineral finish. The wine’s structure and concentration give it excellent aging potential, and good bottles can continue to evolve beautifully for many years, developing even more depth and complexity.

Production
Produced in the Jura, this wine comes from a terroir shaped by clay-limestone soils and a cool continental climate that suits Savagnin beautifully. The grapes are typically harvested by hand, and the wine is vinified and aged in a traditional oxidative style, often under a veil of yeast, which protects the wine while allowing slow development of its unique aromas and flavors.

Food & Serving
Vin Jaune is a natural match for rich, savory dishes such as poultry with morels, chicken in cream sauce, Comté cheese, roasted nuts, or dishes with mushrooms and truffles. Serve slightly cool, around 12–14°C, and consider decanting briefly if desired, though some bottles are best enjoyed straight from the glass to preserve their delicate aromatic balance.
