Description
What kind of wine it is
Domaine Buronfosse Savagnin Varron is an organic white wine, a handcrafted expression from the Jura region. It appears in the glass with a bright golden yellow hue, a prelude to an aromatic profile marked by clear citrus notes. On the palate, it is smooth and structured, offering an enveloping, fresh and perfectly balanced taste progression. To fully appreciate its nuances, it is recommended to serve at a temperature between 10 and 12°C, ideal for accompanying main courses of lean fish and selections of cheese.
Where it comes from
This wine is produced in France, in the heart of the Côtes du Jura, near the village of Rotalier. The Savagnin vines take root in distinctive Bajocian soils, characterised by a surface layer of red-ochre marl resting on compact limestone slabs. This specific geological formation shapes the wine’s identity, giving it a firm structure and great expressive precision. The characteristics of the area also ensure a remarkable ageing potential, estimated between five and ten years.
How it is produced
Production follows the principles of organic farming practised by Domaine Buronfosse. The process begins with meticulous artisanal vinification, followed by a lengthy maturation in wooden barrels. During this stage, the wine rests for eighteen months in direct contact with the lees, a technique that enriches its organoleptic profile and enhances its complexity. This prolonged period in wood ensures an enveloping sip, able to support the grape’s original freshness and highlight the solid structure of the final product.
History and Curiosities
In the heart of Rotalier, in the French Jura, Domaine Buronfosse brings to life an elegant expression of the Côtes du Jura AOC through sustainable farming practices. The Savagnin grapes draw their profound identity from ancient Bajocian soils, composed of red-ochre marl on compact limestone slabs. This mineral character, skilfully enhanced by 18 months of barrel ageing in contact with the lees, gives this artisan organic wine a complex texture and ensures an ageing potential that can reach a decade.
