"The wine exudes exotic and tropical fruits and continues with citrus. The nose has enticing aromas of white flowers and fragrant trees. A touch of spice and dried nuts on the finish add some volume to the softness and delicacy. The salinity of the terroir is very subtle. Really good wine in 2020. The Savagnin is Jura’s signature grape, and also the Domaine’s calling card. Many styles of Savagnin exist. This cuvee, Ouillé (also called Naturé) seeks to protect aromatic freshness by contrast with the oxidative style of Vin Jaune or Savagnin aged under flor (sous-voile). The energy and vivacity are so refreshing and enticing. This wine should be in your cellar."

France is without doubt the world’s supreme wine-producing country, unmatched for the finesse, style and sheer diversity of its wines. France’s revered wine regions form a roll of honour beyond compare. The enduring appeal of France’s classic wine styles turns on the peculiarly French – and often controversial – concept of terroir, the belief in wine with a ‘sense of place’, with flavours and textures.
