      About
      Jean Bourdy Arbois Savagnin 1997 is a dry white wine, made from 100% Savagnin grapes, sourced from the Arbois appellation in the Jura region of France. This wine is notable for its extended aging process, which includes a period under a layer of yeast (voile) in oak barrels, similar to the technique used for Vin Jaune, imparting unique oxidative characteristics. The 1997 vintage showcases the remarkable aging potential of Savagnin, resulting in a wine of exceptional depth and complexity.
      Producer
      At the heart of the Arbois vineyard, Roger Martin writes a page in the history of Vin Jaune. At the place called “La Pinte à la Capitaine,” on the blue marls of the Lias, he planted 14 hectares of Savagnin. It was then the largest estate planted in Savagnin. Today, Pierre Martin perpetuates the work of his father and has enlarged the Estate which totals 34 hectares of vines. In 1999 the La Pinte estate made a brave choice by converting its entire land to organic viticulture. Since 2009 they have reached a new stage of practicing biodynamic farming throughout the 34 hectares.
      Tasting notes

      Jura
      All products from this region
      Jura is a small wine-growing region in eastern France that is responsible for both traditional and very unique oxidative wine styles. The region is located between Western Burgundy and Eastern Switzerland and is characterized by a wooded and hilly landscape, twisted by the relief of the Jura mountains. In the production of local wines, five main grape varieties are used: three authentic and two international. The first of the local varieties is Poulsard, a red grape that accounts for about one-fifth of the region's plantings. Trousseau is another indigenous red variety that needs a lot of sunlight. White Savagnin is found throughout the region. They also create wines from the well-known Chardonnay and Pinot Noir varieties.
