Rijckaert, Arbois Savagnin Grand Elevage Vieilles Vignes, 2022

Rijckaert has holdings in Burgundy and the Jura, and they focus almost exclusively on two grapes: Chardonnay and Savagnin. We were impressed by the intense minerality of this wine, coupled with the richness of fruit and complexity of structure. From organically-farmed vines on classic blue marl soils, this is fresh and clean (there's definitely Burgundian influence here), with yellow-hued fruit (pear, lemon) and lots of salinity.
