The 2023 Domaine des Carlines La Vouivre is a distinctive Côtes du Jura white blending 70% Chardonnay and 30% Savagnin from 30–45-year-old vines. The nose shows ripe pear, apple and citrus with gentle spice and mineral notes.
On the palate, it is rich yet fresh with lively acidity, ripe fruit and a long, mineral-driven finish. Natural fermentation and at least 12 months in predominantly older oak add texture and complexity without overwhelming the fruit.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Jura drinkers who enjoy textured whites with ripe fruit, freshness and savoury complexity. Enjoy it now or cellar for 5–8 years. Ideal with grilled fish, roast chicken, smoked salmon or mature cheeses.
