Fleur de Savagnin 2018 Domaine Labet
Domaine Labet's Fleur de Savagnin is a sulfite-free natural wine produced in the Jura by the Labet family. It is a white wine made from the indigenous Savagnin jaune and vert grape varieties from vines planted in 1989 and 2003 on the blue marls of the Lias. Grapes are spontaneously fermented in used barriques for at least two winters. In the glass it shows a beautiful straw yellow color, on the nose it releases elegant notes of citronella candle, white flowers and exotic fruits, in the mouth reigns a nice citrus acidity which supports the full body of the wine.
