Arbois Vin Jaune
SKU JDVJ
Flagrantly exceeding the appellation’s six-years-and-three-months minimum, Dorbon releases his Vin Jaune only after a full ten years under the veil, and only in certain vintages. The result is an oceanic wine of seemingly impossible power, with raging acidity wed to luscious, salt-caked yellow fruits, and given additional complexity by a raw-almond character that stops short of overt oxidation.

About Joseph Dorbon
Joseph Dorbon’s setup is simple: three hectares of organically tended vines on prime south-facing slopes above his home village of Vadans, a horse to help him plow, and a subterranean, 16th-century cellar in which his soulful wines slowly take shape.
