Jacques Puffeney Arbois Vin Jaune 1998

Domaine Jacques Puffeney, Arbois, Vin Jaune 1998 The smell of Fino Sherry hits you directly in the nose, that sense of nuttiness and apples. There is also some sense of volatility. In the mouth, you are reminded of tart, green apples, graced with a dusting of almonds. This wine is extremely concentrated, as if every ounce were a full bottle of wine. The grape behind this wine is Savagnin and the wine spends over 8 years aging in foudres.
