"This wine is produced from Savagnin, a little-known varietal common in the Jura. Lively spices, almonds, and toasted hazelnuts can be discerned in the aromatics of the 1999 Arbois En Paradis Vieilles Vignes (Savagnin). This deep, spice cake, orange rind, and sweet red/white currant-flavored wine is complex, medium-bodied, and plump. It is rich and fat, yet well-balanced, detailed, and possesses an admirably long, supple finish."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
