  Bien qu'ayant besoin d'une bonne aéraion (nez décevant au début), il profitait d'une énorme acidité, que personnellement j'adore, mais ne ralliait pas tous les suffrages à table. Il en découlait une sensation de tension et de salinité énergisantes, à la fois ciselée et pénétrante. La définition minérale est juste incoyable, on lèche le caillou, c'est très beau, et très long aussi. Certes le profil hyper étiré manque un peu de largeur, mais quelle allonge! Côté aromes, c'est jurassien, épicé, sous-bois, noix fraiche, un peu vieille prune, mais fort nuancé.
  Je l'aurais bien vu sur un poisson servi avec une poélée de champignons... un poisson sauce exotique pas trop sucrée

  April 30, 2018 - Semi-mature yellow fruit with a nice flowery touch. Fat but with lots of freshness from the chalky aftertaste. Not the most complex wine I’ve had from Labet, but one of the most drinkable and delicious.

  March 3, 2018 - So good! Crisp and fresh but great concentration at the same time. Creamy lemon, red apples and great minerality, a bit smoky. So much Jura terroir, could it even be anything other than? I would have confidence in cellaring this for years had I had more bottles but alas no I do not.

  July 25, 2016 - Very typical Jura chardonnay, and also very typical for the producer. Creamy, almost lactic, mouthfeel. Layers of lemon spiced up with some herbal notes and with the charachteristic Jura minerality. Nice wine. Drinks well.
