Hurry… almost sold out!

Chardonnay Savagnin 2020 is a natural wine crafted by Sylvain Jacuot of  Caveau du Val de l'Amour in the Jura region in France. This white wine is made with Chardonnay and Savagnin grapes, vinified in his winery in Cramans, which is essentially his garage at the back of his house. Its a very small operation, and he farms just 1.5-2 hectares so these wines are not easy to come by, and not too much sold outside the region.

This wine is an absolute treasure. When making our order... we had heard directly from our pal Geordie Wine Guide that this one may be "off menu" but really one to get. We asked and were able to secure a small allocation, and so glad we did! Its a blend which has seen three years elevage, and whilst it is Ouillé officially... it for sure has oxidative notes at play!

This wine has that beautiful oxi nose, coupled with Tarte Tartin and marzipan. Notes of black sesame michi (rich paper), raisins, almonds, more toasted sesame and walnut invade the senses. What a wow wine for sure!

We ship every Wednesday. Order by Tuesday 10am.

Prices include taxes, but not delivery.

NATURAL WINES BY CAVEAU DU VAL DE L'AMOUR

Caveau du Val de l'Amour is Sylvain Jacquot, who makes wine in the garage behind his house in Cramans, 10 km north of Arbois. He learned vineyard work from his father and grandfather and made wine as a hobby for years before the domaine officially started in 2016. He works around 2 hectares of scattered plots in communes like Arbois, Buvilly and Montigny-lès-Arsures, with vines aged 40 to 100 years.

Ferments are wild and sulphur is kept low. His Pinot Noir, Ploussard and Trousseau have a lovely earthy depth, while the Chardonnay and Savagnin are made both topped up and oxidative, often with a gentle oxidative edge either way. Start with the Chardonnay Arbois Vieilles Vignes, then look for the Chardonnay Savagnin 2020, three years in barrel, and the Vin Jaune 2016, aged over six years under a veil of yeast.
