3+ years after our last, this most recent bottle was downright unpleasant, with an overwhelming green/grassy aspect that we neither expected nor appreciated. Consistent results over three nights, and then we gave up. Unfortunately, we have one more, so we shall see ....
PS: We corked the remaining quarter bottle and let it sit for three weeks. On retry it was marginally more drinkable — but still a quite unfriendly wine for us.

A grilled citrus nose greets you at the glass. I do get the same flavor plus a full mouth feel that includes chalk, crisp acidity, and Meyer lemon. Very interesting wine.

Solid bottle of savagnin, just missing a little depth and elegance to make it special

A very enjoyable Jura that has a citrus nose, followed by grilled lemon on the palate along with chalk, zippy acidity and lots of minerality.
