“‘This Savagnin is both fruity and full-bodied’ (Wine Enthusiast)”
“The 2022 Savagnin Arbois Grand Élevage Vieilles Vignes offers aromas of ripe yellow apple, lemon pulp, and subtle cedar on the nose. Built around lively acidity, this medium-bodied 2022 wine maintains perfect balance and offers lovely tension on a clean finish.” (Vinous 2024)
