Omas list Does not like this wine: 50 points
July 16, 2022 - Very funky. Im not even sure if the bottle is off. Very strong barn yard, off mushrooms, and not nice mushrooms cooked in butter. I also tried another another Jura wine at the same time, Arbois, which was very nice. Considering this was $30 not a good value if this is really the way it should taste.
