Domaine de Savagny sits in Côtes du Jura, the heart of France's most distinctive wine region. The Jura's continental climate and limestone-rich soils produce wines of mineral precision and unusual character—a stark contrast to the fruit-forward styles of neighboring regions.
The domaine focuses on Savagnin, the region's signature white variety, which yields wines of remarkable complexity and age-worthiness. Their Vin de Paille Côtes du Jura, made from dried Savagnin grapes, expresses the region's tradition of concentrated, honeyed wines. The straight Côtes du Jura Savagnin offers a drier expression of the same grape, showcasing its waxy texture and subtle oxidative notes. The domaine also produces Macvin du Jura, a fortified blend of Savagnin, Poulsard, Chardonnay, Trousseau, and Pinot Noir—a traditional aperitif wine that captures the Jura's diverse palette in a single glass.
