Le Sage Vagnin, White 2023
Philippe Chatillon
Le Sage Vagnin 2023 is a precious, exclusive, and wise vintage. Only 800 bottles are produced each year, all from a small walled vineyard (clos) planted with 65-year-old Savagnin vines, deeply rooted in the grey Jurassic marl. This rarity is the result of the precise and inspired work of Philippe Chatillon, a winemaker sensitive to living things, whose estate is certified organic and located in Arbois, the birthplace of the grape variety.
Vinified with direct pressing and then aged for two years in old barrels, this AOC Arbois white wine stands out for its aromatic purity and balanced roundness. No new wood, no additives: just the grapes, time, and the winemaker's care. The result is a nuanced Savagnin, with a mineral roundness, between tension and sweetness.
The nose is both expressive and delicate: fresh citrus, white peach, acacia blossom, with a subtle mineral touch. On the palate, the texture is round yet taut, with a beautiful length, an elegant saline sensation, and a fresh, floral finish. The wine avoids any heaviness, playing on the perfect balance between the natural richness of the grape variety and the finesse of the terroir.
Le Sage Vagnin will gracefully accompany seafood, aged cheeses like Comté or Bleu de Gex, but also more spicy, oriental, or vegetarian cuisine. Serve between 10 and 12°C, with light decanting, and enjoy now or keep for up to 5 years.
A rare wine, for lovers of finesse and Jura's unique character.
