Community Tasting History

Community Tasting Notes

 Tasted by MJHDC on 8/8/2008: Wanted very much to like this, but found it thin and too acidic. Not much on the nose -- a bit of soil. Better with food, but I was disappointed. Perhaps a bad bottle. (1147 views)
 Tasted by joe d on 1/21/2008: Nice medium-bodied wine. Initially some tannin was evident so I decanted the rest of the bottle, which helped. High-toned red berry fruit and acidity made this a good food wine. At <$20 this could be a nice alternative to pinot. (1303 views)

Jura

A petite and relatively obscure wine region in eastern France, between Burgundy and the Swiss border. Its geographical isolation has helped it to remain a rare bastion of traditional winemaking techniques, and today it produces some of the most distinctive wines in the world. Reds from the Jura are often light-bodied, earthy, berried, and reminiscent of the village wines of Burgundy (though here they are made of local grapes like Poulsard and Trousseau). While Chardonnay features widely, the true specialty of the region is the Vin Jaune (“yellow wine”) made from the white Savagnin grape. Cloudy, difficult Vin Jaune is made only in the best vintages, and must be aged for at least six years before being released. As it ages under a layer of yeast, known locally as “voile,” the wine slowly oxidizes, leading to complex aromas and flavors that range from walnut skin to sultana to spices and truffles. Famously long lived it is always sold in dumpy 62 cl bottle - the wine lost in production having been taken by les anges.
