What does “ouillé” mean?
Ouillé means the barrels are topped up as the wine evaporates, so no air gap forms and no flor (the yeast layer behind Vin Jaune) develops. That is why Face B tastes fresh and salty rather than nutty and oxidative, and why it is a great Savagnin to start with if Vin Jaune feels like a step too far.
