This 2012 Vin Jaune from Arbois presents a deep golden hue. On the nose, it offers an intensely complex bouquet of roasted nuts (walnuts, almonds), curry spices (saffron, cumin), dried yellow fruits, green apple peel, and a distinct earthy, mineral quality. The palate is dry, sharp with piercing acidity, and full-bodied, echoing the aromatic notes with remarkable length and a profound savory, umami finish. It’s a wine of extraordinary character and depth, a true testament to its unique oxidative aging process.
