Arbois Savagnin 'Sous Voile'

A must-have for afficionados of oxidative white wines with a dash of intensity, this wine made of Savagnin rested in barrel for three years under flor (three more years and it would have been Vin Jaune) giving it a lot of body and complexity. A hearty hazelnut note gives way on the palate to a luscious cooked apple, yet well-balanced with lively citrus-like freshness. |O|B|
