Tasting Notes

WA97
The 2010 L'Etoile Vin Jaune is a super elegant version of the Savagnin aged under a veil of yeasts for no less than six full years and whatever remains of the year when the grapes were harvested. It has a great nose, consistent with what I expected from a great year, though it was recently bottled and showed a little closed, subtle and insinuating, elegant and serious, with some strictness. It has great purity of flavors, great length and a mineral, almost salty finish. There is great complexity and detail in the nose, slowly developing aromas reminiscent of diesel, rancid nuts, curry and dry hay. It was bottled in the summer of 2017.
