To me, this came more across as a richer Burgundy style than Jura. Fairly ripe butterscotch notes with bracing acidity that balanced the big frame. A very nice chardonnay. Seems like it would hold, but I can't say if it would improve.

Raid Len's Cellar #3: Apple, nuttiness from some light oxidization and orange peel. Good acidity, and nice fullness of fruit. The oxidization gives it a little bit more interest and is better for having it.

Light yellow. Seems a bit closed down, some yellow apple, very agreeable. Quite mild acidity on the palate, medium to low tension. Drinks well, but could be a little more energetic.

Nice chardonnay with typical Jura notes. This was really impressive 18 months ago, but it feels like it is starting to fade.

A pure and delightful Jura Chardonnay. Lightly oxidative. Grass and straw taste and smell earlier on, more appley and citrusy later. Gossamer texture.
