Pneumatic press to avoid touching and damaging the berries. Vinification method like the traditional white wine, then maturing for 6 years and 3 months. It is the king of our wines. During maturing a layer of yeast appears on the surface then by a strange achelmy a bouquet of taste reminding fresh nuts of grilled almonds will emerge. This vinification will give a rich wine (13 to 14° of alcoohol), a weak production on A well exposed soil.

A mix of walnut, grilled almonds, curry, nutmeg, clove and pepper.

The 2016 vintage is perfect for discovering Vin Jaune because its power remains delicate.
