Vin Jaune is the Jura's legend, and Domaine de Montbourgeau makes a benchmark one. Grown from Savagnin in the fossil-strewn soils of L'Etoile, the wine spends over six years aging in barrel under a veil of yeast, untopped, slowly turning gold and developing its famous nutty, savory intensity. The result is unlike almost anything else in wine: dry, powerful, and endlessly complex, with curry spice, walnut, and a saline tang that lingers for ages. It's bottled in the traditional squat clavelin and built to age for decades. A true original for the adventurous.

More about Domaine de Montbourgeau

Domaine de Montbourgeau was founded a century ago, in the small Jura town of L’Etoile — the star — thus named because of the prodigious amount of star-shaped fossils in the soils, formed when ancient seas dried up.

Over the decades, they’ve become known for their white wines; like the best in the region, they are complex, saline, and (mostly) oxidative, with waxy yellow fruit and tons of minerality. They mostly grow Chardonnay, with a bit of Savagnin thrown in, as well as a smattering of red grapes.
