Tasting notes
The bottled ouillé 2022 Savagnin from Arbois, of which I had tasted some components the previous year, contains wine mostly from Trias clay soils, vinified, aged and bottled without added sulfur. It's ripe without excess, quite fresh and balanced for the year, coming in at 13.5% alcohol and displaying a yellow, almost fluorescent color. It's open and expressive and reveals varietal notes, mixing citrus, yellow fruit and some herbal notes and a hint of white pepper.

This barrel sample of the topped-up 2022 Savagnin Arbois evokes fragrant lemon peel, yellow apple and dried blossom. Focused and tight on the medium-bodied palate, the 2022 strikes a remarkable balance between flavor concentration and zesty acidity.
