Okay, I’m not sure I get a funky Jura oxidative note or more of that green “flor” thing you get with with Fino Sherry. Regardless, this wine is very well-structured and, to my taste buds, delectable. Medium-bodied and taut on the palate with notes of lemongrass, sunflower seed, Kaffir lime leaf, salted Granny Smith apple, calendula, Mirabelle plum, marzipan, crunchy nectarine, and a chalky mineral underpinning running throughout. The finish is long and mouthwatering eliciting another sip and a hankering for moules et frites. Difficult to detect the listed 14.6% ABV.

Loaded with orchard fruit, showing some age/maturity but not oxidized which is a win for Labets. Electric acidity with tons of energy. Delicious!

Don't have a ton of experience with the oxidized Jura wine style. Still, this was complex and elegant.
