Jacques Tissot Savagnin Arbois

Jacques Tissot Savagnin Arbois offers a complex, full-bodied experience with prominent nutty, oxidative notes and velvety texture. While praised for its balance of citrus, stone fruit, and oak integration, some find its profile unconventional. Reviews highlight aged sherry-like depth and smoothness, though opinions vary on its distinct character.

This Savagnin from Arbois presents a captivating pale gold hue, characteristic of its Jura origins. The nose is a complex tapestry of green walnut, bruised apple, and a hint of curry leaf, underpinned by oxidative notes typical of the region's vin jaune style. On the palate, it reveals a robust structure with a pronounced acidity that cuts through the rich, nutty flavors, complemented by a saline minerality. The finish is long and persistent, echoing with notes of dried apricot and a subtle, savory umami. A quintessential expression of Jura's unique terroir, this wine is both intellectually stimulating and deeply satisfying.
