Honey, hay, white flowers ripe apple cider. Natural. oxidative character on the palate but also super fresh, nice glycerin texture. Not really my thing but very interesting to taste.

Nose expressive of hay and lemon peal, perhaps a bit of cetons, mouth very fresh with good bitter of lemon peal, ending on roasted cereals. Surprising. There's a kind of rusticity, but what an energy and personnality. Very good. Try with cheese, type "fromage à pate cuite", comté, beaufort, cantal.

Jus de pomme, colle à bois, foin, miel et cereales roties. Un nez typique des vins natures du jura. Bouche franchement tracante, oui tracante. Une fusée, wouuuff ! Incotable

Yes, chardonnay; no, not a burgundy look-alike. Starting a bit clumsy in the glass, but after an hour it was a pure wine with a very good citrus backbone and good concentration. The next day the wine showed even better. Good stuff, enjoy now and next year(s?).

Jean François Ganevat makes elaborated wines. This Chardonnay Cuvée Florine is a somewhat tight wine, balanced, fresh, even pure, that showed its better half after two days in the fridge. Not a blockbuster for your grandchildren, but a lovely wine for 2012-2014; maybe a point more next year.
