April 27, 2024 - Tasted in restaurant.
The appearance is decent with a slight haze and only a slightly golden hue.
The aromatics for this wine are problematic though.
Essentially, the wine is without varietal or regional characteristics.
Instead you get winemaker induced VA and early sherry-like notes.
Moderate acidity but lacking the crispness and definition that you can normally count on in the Jura region, no perceptible floral or mineral notes: a very high price to pay for this kind of dogmatic approach to winemaking...
Not going to improve. -

December 3, 2023 - Robe jaune intensité claire
Nez intensité prononcée sur pierre à fusil, fleurs blanches, subtile présence de noix
Bouche, jus avec tranchant, notes de curry, noix associées à une forte dimensions minérale.
Un vin sapide, à la finale saline et pointes d’agrumes et épices, très longue persistance (plus de 60 caudalies).
95/100 -

January 26, 2023 - The wine I had was definitely well over the hill, so if you have later vintages, don't wait too long.

January 27, 2022 - Ready to drink for sure (will live for long but I doubt it'll improve, it's perfect where it is), very good wine that is easy to serve alone or with food, crowd-pleaser.
Clear golden color.
Unlike other comment, I find it fills the mouth with flavours, the fruit is very well defined, it is powerfull, vibrant, nice finish. Rarely in this price range you find so much and so well defined.2 people found this helpful Comment -

May 31, 2021 - Billowing with aromas: struck match, toasted spice, brioche, petrichor, spring flowers, sweet apple, citrus candy, mushrooms. Full and spicy, silky texture, a tapestry of flavor on the palate. Very long, with myriad fruit, yeast and mineral nuances lingering beautifully. This is brilliant Chardonnay, so intense and complex, with incredible persistence. This will evolve positively for many more years.
