In the glass

Full-bodiedHigh acidityDryLong finish

Aroma: grilled almond, walnut

Palate: walnut, grilled almond

Vin Jaune from blue Lias marl, held six years and three months sous voile: the domaine describes a bright yellow robe and a harmonious, complex palate of grilled almond and walnut with surprising intensity and length.

What it pairs with

  • Comte and Morbier cheese board
    Credoz names both cheeses; hard mountain cheese is the appellation's own pairing.
  • Morel cream sauce
    The producer calls out creamed morels, the dish Vin Jaune was effectively made for.
  • Foie gras
    Listed by the domaine; the veil-aged savour and acidity cut the fat.
