henri maire arbois vin jaune 1997
Reference: 108900Stock: 2 (stock immediately available)
Condition: bottle in perfect condition
first french aoc in 1936, arbois is also the largest appellation in the jura. this fertile land ("ar" and "bos" in celtic), located in the north of the jura, gives birth to red, rosé and white wines, made from the five authorised grape varieties (chardonnay, savagnin, pinot noir, trousseau and poulsard). the vineyards are spread around the town of arbois and are spread over thirteen communes. the producers of the commune of pupillin can add this name to that of the appellation on their label. the whites are mainly made from chardonnay. however, the terroir, their particular maturation (whether or not they are "ouillés", i.e. with a more or less oxidative style) and their possible blending with the savagnin grape make them truly original wines. arbois also produces the famous vin jaune, a wine aged under veil for 6 years and 3 months, with a very particular oxidative style, which develops nutty aromas. finally, vin de paille is a sweet wine made from grapes that have dried for a minimum of six weeks on straw or racks, and grown at very low yields (20hl/ha). they are aged for at least 3 years in barrels and develop aromas of candied fruits, prunes, honey and candied oranges.
