This is still drinking beautifully. Amazing for a 11 yr old "fun" Ganevat. Needed an hour plus open for the fruit to really come out, but great fruit, good acid, great mature earthy notes, and nicely moderated tannnins. Just a great bottle!

Fairly neutral bouquet with yellow fruits and a pleasant light dose of oak. On the palate beautiful citrus acidity, minerals, juicy wine with a good length

100% Savagnin made with purchased old-vine fruit from an organically farmed vineyard. Fermented spontaneously, aged for 24 to 36 months (depending on the source) in old 500-liter demi-muids. Bottled unfined, unfiltered and without any SO2. 14,5% alcohol.

There's quite a bit of sediment in the wine: the first pour or two are clear straw yellow, but the pours are quite cloudy, more reminiscent of pineapple juice - I heartily recommend to let the bottle stand upright and then decant it carefully. The nose is ripe yet sharp with subtly funky yet not particularly wild aromas of fresh Granny Smith apple, some saline oceanic tones, a little bit of leesy yeast, light sweet peachy notes, a hint of oxidative nuttiness, a touch of lifted eucalyptus character and a whiff of creamy oak. The wine feels ripe, concentrated and pretty structured on the palate with a full body and intense flavors of saline minerality, some juicy nectarine tones, a little bit of caramel, light funky nuances, a hint of oxidative nuttiness and a touch of fresh pineapple. The high alcohol lends some heat to the palate and the quite high acidity keeps the wine firm and structured. The lengthy finish is lively, concentrated and somewhat hot with an intense and slightly sweet-toned aftertaste of fresh pineapple, some nectarine, a little bit of honeyed richness, light funky tones, a hint of saline minerality and a touch of creaminess.

I was surprised how big and ripe this wine was - probably more ripe and concentrated than any other nego Ganevat white I've tasted. You can taste that the ripeness in the sweet-toned fruit flavors, high alcohol and sense of concentration, but true to the classic Jura Savagnin style, the wine is at the same time surprisingly fresh and balanced with an unmistakable streak of saline minerality that seems to be the hallmark of Jura's whites. Although I prefer the leaner, less opulent style of Ganevat whites, this is still a pretty enjoyable effort - as long as one makes sure to decant the bottle! The flavors do get muddled a bit once the wine starts to get cloudy.

A blend of purchased Gamay from Morgon, Beaujolais (75%), and Poulsard and Savagnin from Jura (sometimes Enfariné as well) in unknown proportions. Aged for a year in old oak barrels. Bottled unfined, unfiltered and without any SO2 on 20th of July, 2022. 11,5% alcohol. Lot number L2111.

Pale-to-medium-deep cherry-red color. The nose feels pungent and heavily reductive with aromas of struck match, acrid smoke and some sulfurous tones, a little bit of crunchy redcurrant, light funky notes of animale and a hint of earth. The wine feels ripe, juicy and slightly lifted on the palate with a medium body and somewhat wild flavors of dark forest fruits, some volatile notes of nail polish, a little bit of cherry, light wild strawberry tones, a hint of earth and a touch of tangy salinity. The structure relies solely on the high acidity as there are no perceptible tannins. The finish is wild, crunchy and moderately long with a dry aftertaste of redcurrants and tangy salinity, some earthy tones, a little bit of tart cranberry, light stuffy reductive tones, a hint of gunpowder smoke and a touch of sweet red cherry.

A simple, straightforward and rather stuffy naturalist red that suffers from excessive reduction. Just as last time (with the 2018 vintage), I was positively surprised how the wine didn't turn mousy - it certainly feels like a wine that would develop mousy flavors very soon after opening a bottle! Otherwise the wine didn't leave a particularly memorable impression. Even if the 2018 we tasted a few years before wasn't a particularly thrilling effort, I think it was still a bit more interesting and enjoyable compared to this vintage. I wonder how Ganevat makes some of the most thrilling whites in Jura, but their reds are always a let-down?

Some sources say this is a Gamay, others say it is a 50/50 blend of Gamay and Chardonnay, yet others say it's a Pinot Noir. Go figure. At least it is vinified in a typical Ganevat fashion, ie. fermented spontaneously and bottled without fining, filtration or any added sulfites on July 20th, 2022. Lot number L2109PL. 12% alcohol.

Hazy, medium-deep ruddy-orange color. The nose feels reductive and funky with aromas of flatulent reduction, some smoky notes of struck flint, a little bit of crunchy redcurrant and a hint of rancid nuts, suggesting mousiness. The wine feels dry, crunchy and slightly fizzy on the palate with a light-to-medium body and somewhat sauvage flavors of fresh redcurrants, some saline mineral tones, a little bit of appley fruit, light flatulent notes of reduction and a vaguely mousy hint of sesame seeds. The wine is high in acidity but there are no tannins to speak of. The finish is long and dry with an acid-driven aftertaste of redcurrants, some skunky notes of sulfurous reduction, a little bit of saline minerality and a light yet perceptible hint of grainy mousiness.

Ehh. Otherwise this was just a simple, light and quite uninteresting little red (most likely a red-white blend, based on the very light color and somewhat appley flavors of the wine), which would've left a rather lukewarm impression in itself. However, the light yet still somewhat perceptible streak of mousiness took the wine from mediocre to worse. There are very few redeeming qualities in this wine. I should just learn to steer completely clear of these Ganevat nego reds.

Golden delicious apple, waxy, elegant oxidization, and salty mineral.

Medium acid with a finish dominated by the aforementioned apple note.

A textbook example of how great Ganevat’s wines can be. At 12.7%, there’s much riper apple notes and more texture than a lot of Jura Chardonnay. Achieves this while maintaining finesse, savory notes and the complexity that comes with long elevage.

Classic Ganevat at a significantly lower price point than the domaine wines. Maybe not quite as cohesive and deep as the domaine wines, but pretty close.

Served in a line up with Bornard, Cavarodes etc. This was my favourite out of those. Never really got ganevat until this bottle.

Pours like a rosé, luminous pink. Pure cranberry on the nose with some reduction. The acid is in check, there is a lovely floral nose which keeps you lifting the glass for a sniff. It's just so refreshing. Not overly complex, but at this price point who cares. It's just so refreshing and the fruit is very pure. Un-put-downable.

This was a gift and I'm glad it was because I'd probably never order or pick this wine off of a shelf.

I really enjoy the aromatics of this wine. Heaps of white flowers, wet stone, lemon and other stone fruits.

The palate is interesting to me. It would come in waves of really good and then other times it was just ok. It had some moments of astringency and other times maybe a slight prickly acidity. I described this wine as a savory lemon dessert.

It's really well made, but it made me want either a chardonnay or a riesling, not some combination of both.

Aged not under the veil for 2 years. Shows some touches of natural funk with VA and bretty/mousy notes. Those are real light though and the fruit starts pushing them into the background with air. And I like what comes out. Touches of honey comb and citronella let you know its not Chard but you still might be fooled blind. Focused with flashes of mineral. Long acids behind lively, complex fruit. Quite nice. I can't help but think with a touch of SO2 this could have been stellar.

Un nez d’arômes de cerise chimique. Un goût d’eau coupé avec de l’alcool à brûler. Un vrai foutage de gueule, le vigneron devrait goûter ses vins avant de les envoyer, je n’ai jamais goûté un vin qui démontre autant le mépris d’un vigneron pour ses clients. Honte au producteur

Organic and biodynamic viticulture, old vines (planted 1949) on marnes grises du lias and marnes irisées, fermented and aged on the fine lees for two years in neutral wood, bottled unfined and unfiltered without addition of sulfur, 13.4% ABV. Decanted to release the carbon dioxide and to separate the wine from the sediment. Vibrant full yellow colour; expressive nose, apple and lemon zest, a hint of butter, warmth from the wood, smoky minerality, good depth; elegant and flowing palate, gentle bitters, airy style with wonderfully vibrant (but not piercing) acidity, harmonious and seamless; very good resonance and length, hint of grapefruit. Lovely wine, ready now, with another five years in the tank.

After two hours open, lots of VA on the nose, lemon, honey, pineapple, tropical fruits.
Pretty straightforward in terms of flavor - lemon candy, herbal tea, slight oxidative notes.

murky light magenta color. nose strongly natural with some corn chips over crushed berries and herb. bright tart acidity and a light to medium body. a touch of effervescence is there in fact. muddled raspberry flavor. some savory salted components and a dash of cream. sage like herbs emerge along the back of the tongue. refreshing finish like a vinegar shrub. another nice bottle of ganevat.
