March 23, 2024 - Kummies (Ilkka)'s note below captures this wine perfectly. Slightly cloudy, unfiltered colour. Good balance between ripe, slightly tropical fruit and Jura acidity/salinity. Enjoyed the freshness on this so would be inclined to drink this on the younger side.

January 16, 2024 - Minerality, pineapple, chablis-like on the finish. Lacking a touch of tension, like many 2020s. Solid overall though.

December 8, 2023 - A little nutty/almondy on the nose, but all fruit on the palate. Mostly sharp acid and orchard fruit up front but veers towards citrus and almost tropical fruit (pineapple) on the prickly short finish, more iodine and mineral on a persistent finish. I was worried about this being too young but it's fresh and delicious.

August 8, 2023 - Pretty nice on the nose with attractive fruit of lemon and green apple and notes of cereal, iodine and dandelion. Started off very tame but fortunately blossomed over time. On the palate medium-bodied and easy-going with a savory character and pretty nice acidity. Clocking in at 12.5% ABV this it neither weighty nor notably ripe. There is a hint of bruised apple among the otherwise citrusy fruit and some hay, but overall this is clearly not of the oxidative style of Jura Chardonnay. I really like the slight saltiness here which provides a lot to the drinkability of the wine. Similarly to the nose this was very mild at first but gained both in terms of expressiveness and juiciness with some time in the glass. Finishes tangy and pithy, very moreish.
