Baud Vin Jaune Cotes du Jura

Vin Jaune is perhaps the most famous wine from the relatively unknown Jura region. It has the oxidative style familiar to Jura wines. In recent years, more and more wine drinkers are discovering lesser-known wine regions around the world, and as a result, Jura wines are also enjoying a modest resurgence. With the introduction of Domaine Baud wines, we are certain that you will also love Jura wines.

The wines from the Jura

The Jura wine region, also known as the province of France, essentially forms the eastern flank of the centuries-famous Burgundy wine region. This has led to the Jura sometimes being somewhat overlooked. And yet, wine has been produced in the triangle formed by Dijon, Lyon, and Geneva for centuries. With the rise of authentic wines with a story, lesser-known wines are increasingly gaining ground in the wine trade. This is a development from which the Jura region is benefiting greatly and profiting enormously. The Jura region's history is testament to its importance for centuries. No fewer than nine generations have been at the helm of Domaine Baud. This makes Domaine Baud not only one of the oldest wineries in the region, but also a true family-run winery. And with increasing success. It is the ninth generation that has ensured that Domaine Baud wines are becoming increasingly successful on the European continent.

Impressions of Baud Vin Jaune Cotes du Jura

Vin Jaune is the hallmark of the Jura wine region. It's a lightly oxidative wine made from the local Savagnin grape. The grapes are fermented in stainless steel and then transferred to 228-liter oak barrels. By only partially bottling the barrels, a "flor" layer develops, a characteristic also found in Sherry wines. However, Vin Jaune is far more complex. Think spicy aromas of almond, salt, and a hint of curry. Baud Vin Jaune Cotes du Jura is a distinctive glass of wine that perfectly embodies the Jura region.
