  A l'aveugle sur une dégustation d'Alsace, il semblait plus clair à l'oeil et plus "froid" au nez que le Geisberg de Kientzler. En bouche, les agrumes ont beaucoup de pureté, le vin est ciselé, salin, sec, droit, présentant une austérité très classe, une droiture épurée, saline. Il est plus zeste que confit sur le citron, s'y ajoute pamplemousse et yuzu, des notes fumées. Je lles tenterais bien sur des belles huitres grasses et iodées, noisetées comme les Gillardeau.

  November 14, 2018 - Opened with turkey dinner along with a "meh" red burgundy. Cork in good shape, pronounced kerosene on the nose, well balanced and moreish on the palate. Quite good and I think still has a few years yet.

  November 7, 2018 - Suspect storage, probably not a representative bottle. But this showed dark golden color and lots of oxidative notes on the nose. The oxidative qualities carried through to the palate, and while this wasn't a dealbreaker for this enthusiast of Jura whites, it's probably not what this should be drinking like at the moment.

  October 6, 2018 - Light golden hue.
  White pepper nose. Some lemon hints. Subtle nose.
  Dry, with good acidity. Lot's of minerality. Slate. Medium plus finish. Some goose berry off the finish. Less petrol than expected. Drinking well, and will no doubt get a little bit better. Excellent QPR. A fine wine.
  
  Smoked a Camacho Triple Maduro

  May 1, 2018 - Medium pale yellow color. Incredibly spicy nose with Kumquat, orange blossom, coriander, ginger and preserved lemon, rather restrained than full-blown. In the mouth, this is quite close to perfect, it first suggests some sweetness, but quickly turns the corner to a fully dry mouthfeel, great grip and texture, dense and tight like a block of granite, but juicy with harmonic acidity, complex, silky and lemony in the finish, which also boasts some fine bitter notes. Really, really great.
