Are you ready for something wild? This is Vin Jaune from the Jura region in eastern France — a wine unlike anything else. Made from the Savagnin grape and aged sous-voile (under a protective layer of yeast) for several years, it develops its signature nutty, spicy character and remarkable longevity.

Domaine de Sainte Marie Vin Jaune bursts with aromas of toasted walnuts, almonds, dried citrus peel, and subtle spice. On the palate it’s rich and layered, with vibrant acidity balancing the intense, savoury flavours, leading to a long, lingering finish. The sous-voile ageing gives it that distinctive oxidative edge that makes Vin Jaune so unique.

Food Pairings: Traditionally perfect with aged Comté or other hard cheeses, creamy mushroom sauces, roast chicken, or smoked fish. But for those who like a laugh, it’s also strangely compelling with Cheesy Wotsits — possibly the most unlikely pairing you’ll ever try.

A fascinating, characterful Jura wine that’s wild, distinctive, and unforgettable — a true taste of one of France’s most unusual wine regions.

Savagnin

Small-berried and thick-skinned, Savagnin has been cultivated in France for at least 900 years. It is also known as Traminer, as well as ‘Heida’ in Switzerland, although the grape’s birthplace is unclear.

It is best known as the signature grape of Jura. It ripens late, though it can produces dry white wines with good acidity. In Jura, it typically has a citrus and floral character, though more tropical examples can be found.
