Domaine du Pélican 'Grand Curoulet' Savagnin 2018

Producer:
If Domaine Marquis d’Angerville has considered expanding beyond the Côte d’Or, it is because something very special is about to happen. The design of Domaine du Pélican, in the Jura, took 4 years of work until Yves Herody, the geologist responsible for mapping the soils of d’Angerville in Burgundy, found what is most precious in the region - including vineyards of Jacques Puffeney. When Jura and Burgundy merge, an immense charge of energy, emotion and refinement is unleashed with each bottle opened.

Wine:
One of the grand crus of Arbois. Cold plot, hidden from the sun and heat with its exposure facing north. The soil is made of gray loam (about half of the plot) and loam of different colors (green and red) from the Triassic period - the oldest traces of the Jura. 

Spectacular set that demonstrates notes of baking, almonds, orange peel and infinite mineral purity.

Score: 18 points Jancis Robinson
