Vin Jaune
Our committee's review
A true gastronomic wine, once hailed by Curnonsky as one of the five greatest white wines in the world, Vin Jaune is a jewel of the Jura region. Aged for six years and three months under a layer of yeast known as the “voile,” this distinctive style is masterfully represented by Domaine de Savagny. Their wine stays true to tradition, with extended aging that allows for the slow, steady development of the wine’s complex character and the formation of the voile itself.
Discover the 2017 vintage of this remarkable piece of Jura heritage—available for under €35. A magical wine whose reputation is soaring—now is the time to enjoy it!
Powerful and complete, the 2017 Côtes du Jura Vin Jaune is a stunning ambassador for this iconic oxidative wine—a perfect match for traditional poulet aux morilles or aged Comté. Its warm, expressive nose bursts with notes of marc, stone fruit, and mirabelle eau-de-vie, alongside hints of fresh walnut, anise, spices, and a delicate oxidative touch. On the palate, it is incredibly refined, with a bright acidity that brings freshness and energy. With time, this legendary wine will develop even deeper notes, reminiscent of dried morels. Best enjoyed with spiced dishes, green curry, Mont d'Or gratin, or the classic Bresse chicken with Vin Jaune and morels. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee and 94/100 by Bettane + Desseauve.
