Domaine Marquis d'Angerville
Domaine du Pélican Arbois Savagnin Ouillé
Bright and round at the same time. Citrus fruit, little oxidative, great acid.

Aug 31st, 2018Notes of citrus zest, saline, a bit salty and just a tad oxidative but not as much as typical savagnin.

Jun 23rd, 2018Always a great bottle - saline, high toned zesty citrusy notes, some subtle funky cellar room character on the nose. Palate is bright, not oxidative as other Jura’s can be. Orange blossom and leafy character on the back end. Refreshing and unique.

Jun 22nd, 2018What an interesting wine! I've been wanting to try wines from Arbois, and I can't say I am left hanging. Cerebral.. lemon oil and rosemary, fresh ginger, brioche, and a faint hint of flint. Zippy and lemony on the pallet, but with a creamy/oily texture -pink Himalayan salt?- raw almond, honeydew, and a supple finish. Can't wait to try the desert styles:)
Paired well with my dinner choice tonight - Noodle Bowl with Soy-Glazed Duck, Mushrooms & Winter Greens.

A lot of alcohol and aldehydic character. Very disappointing.

Sep 13th, 2017This is delicious and easily the best wine from Jura I've tried yet. Musk melon, cellar room funk, orchard fruit, and a slight oxidative note on the nose with a plush, ripe palate make this such a delicious drink. 100% Savignin.

Feb 25th, 2017Highly vivid and fresh with notes of lemon zest and Granny Smith apples. A touch of salinity in the rather decent finish

Jan 31st, 2020Good tension that complements the citrus and floral notes as well as the light salinity on the palate. It’s a very friendly wine and the purity of the wine really shows through. Great wine to make you forget a muggy summer night.
