  Powerful, yet elegant nose of apples, lemon, minerals, white peach, and white pepper. Lots of acidity with lemon notes, chalk, spices, and ginger on the palate. Long finish. Amazing wine!

  Bouchon totalement imbibé. Robe jaune citron mûr.
  Bu sur 2 jours, plus ouvert le second.
  Au nez bien typé Chardonnay, en bouche peu de gras, de la droiture et une touche herbacée qui me fait penser à certains chenins.
  Cette bouteille me semble un ton au-dessous des précédentes.

  Initially it had a strange level of reduction. Blows off some but never quite subsiding completely. Hint of natty, with rich orchard fruit, pineapple. Nice fruity acidity, with medium weight. Doesn't quite have the complexity of the Antide in comparison, but I enjoyed the wine.

  Such a treat to drink Ganevat. I was a bit surprised by the inviting buttery almond nose. felt very creamy, unlike any other Ganevat I had. the taste was more jura-like. At first not completely in balance but after half an hour it is totally there! a bit of smokiness as well. Damn delicious!

  Lemon, apple and touch of nuttiness on the nose. Broad but lively palate with great acidity keeping everything together. Not showing its age at all.
  Done in a Burgundian style but with a very clear Jura profile.
