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.

Inky-dark in the glass, this is described by Juan Carlos as having a ‘Mediterranean’ personality. It lies directly opposite Valdeginés but benefits from the afternoon sun, making for a more forthright, muscular style. The nose has a certain meatiness and a herbal accent – thyme, and liquorice. The palate is mouth-filling and impressively potent, with powerful, yet marvellously fruit-coated tannins. As always, this needs bottle age, but will repay it handsomely.

This is a taut expression of Savagnin. The combination of marls (grey and multi-coloured from the Triassic period) produces that oh so good salinity and complexity which characterise this wine. Aromas of citrus and crunchy green apple wake up your palate. The white blossom notes impart elegance and finesse. The precision is charming. I want to see how this will age and the volume that will develop with time.

Deep ruby in colour, this set the stage with warm, toasted fruitcake on the nose, iodine and vanilla ream. T he palate curves on dark fruit, chocolate cherry liqueur and delicate citrus. There is something vaguely reminiscent of black forest gateau here, a warmth and layered complexity. The finish is long but in these early stages somewhat marked by oak. This will become better integrated over time as there is an abundance of fruit which will devour any overt oak character. The finish is generous and long
