Had this with raclette. This wine is in a really lovely place right now. The grapefruit/quinine of previous bottles is still present but greatly diminished, and apple is now the dominant fruit note. Still bright, but not overpowering, acidity and some intesting secondary notes that don't detract from the overall freshness. What a lovely wine. It's a shame that there won't be more. RIP Dominique.

Almost 5 yo and going strong. Fantastic. Everything I have said before and more. Love this! Grapefruit, minerality, plus the quinine descriptor others have noted is spot on. I love the aromas that come off this wine with a little air. Mountain herbs and wildflowers.

Absolutely delicious, unique stuff. Jura ouillé notes, bruised apple, white tea, etc., but the most distinctive feature, as others have noted is the strong grapefruit/quinine note that is accentuated by just the slightest note of spritz. Not the most amazing qpr you'll find anymore, sadly, but a pretty badass drink.

Bronze-colored in the glass with a quinine note on the nose.
Crisp, like a golden delicious apple, with good supporting acidity. Very good.
