The hand-harvested savagnin for the typé is spontaneously fermented in stainless steel vats, then aged for 3 years in oak barrels in the Domaine Badoz centuries-old cellars, without topping up. Natural evaporation occurs, reducing the production by around a third. Originally destined (potentially) for Vin Jaune, a selection of barrels is made and the aging halted, to create this wine.
Domaine Benoit Badoz Savagnin Typé Côtes du Jura 2020 is a classic Jura "typé" wine, made in an oxidative style similar to Vin Jaune. Produced from 100% Savagnin and aged for around three years in oak barrels without topping up, it develops a distinctive nutty and savory complexity.
