2011 Arbois Vin Jaune, 99 Mois d'Elevage, Bénédicte et Stéphane Tissot, Jura

This special cuvée of Vin Jaune has been aged for two years more than the required six year minimum for this wine style. The extra ageing adds intensity of expression and concentration of nutty, almond flavour. It is made from a 50/50 blend of vines in En Spois (grown on Trias clay soils) and a parcel just next to the Tour de Curon (grown on Lias clay soil). Just 6 barrels were made, and aged uniquely in a warm cellar. By the time of bottling, 4 of the barrels had no flor veil so the wines aged along the lines of an Amontillado, giving a more oxidative and powerful expression of Vin Jaune.
