L'Attente is French for "the wait", and the name is well earned. This is Vin Jaune, the Jura's singular, patient take on Savagnin. It comes from Peggy and Jean-Pascal Buronfosse, who got tired of city life and moved to La Combe de Rotalier in 1999. That's J.F. Ganevat's village. They wanted to grow their drink as well as their food. That down-to-earth beginning shows in the farming: the cuvée comes from 3.6 hectares of vines averaging 70 years old, on clay and limestone, farmed biodynamically and picked by hand. It's a grower's Vin Jaune with nothing smoothed away. Open it next to a wedge of aged Comté and give it time in the glass. It waited long enough to get here.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Aged Comté, poulet au vin jaune with morels, Bresse chicken in a cream sauce, roast guinea fowl with walnuts, mild chicken or shellfish curries, toasted walnuts and hard mountain cheeses.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Vin Jaune profile: walnut, toasted almond, curry spice and dried apple, with a salty, savoury tang from long ageing under a veil of yeast. Think a bone-dry fino Sherry, but unfortified and with more cut. It's medium to full in body, with vivid, mouthwatering acidity and a remarkably long, nutty finish.
