A profound expression of Jura terroir from Damien Courbet, this Château-Chalon reveals the distinctive character of Savagnin aged under veil. Drink now or cellar for decades to come.
Château-Chalon 2017 Domaine Damien Courbet
At the heart of Jura's most emblematic appellation, Damien Courbet crafts wines of remarkable precision, faithful to the spirit of Savagnin aged sous voile. On the blue marl soils of Château-Chalon, he tends his vines with rigour and respect for terroir, prioritising controlled yields and traditional vinification.
Made exclusively from Savagnin, this 2017 vintage was aged for over six years in barrel without topping, under a veil of yeasts, following the Jurassien method. This slow oxidative ageing forges the wine's unique personality and develops its full aromatic complexity.
The colour is deep gold with amber reflections. The powerful, refined nose reveals characteristic notes of fresh walnuts, roasted hazelnut, spices, mild curry and dried apple, lifted by a saline and subtly oxidative character. On the palate, the structure is ample, focused and intensely persistent, driven by remarkable freshness and tension. The finish is long and vibrant, leaving a saline and spiced imprint, signature of the appellation.
A wine of considerable ageing potential, capable of evolving over several decades. Serve at 14–15°C, ideally alongside poultry with cream and morels, aged Comté cheese, mushroom risotto or the traditional poularde au vin jaune.
