  Lean, elegant, aromatic — like the wines of respected French producers like Dagueneau and Guiberteau. Sophisticated, not a crowd pleaser. Tastes nothing like most Jura wines. No oxidation at all. Flowers, lemon, and a menthol-y greenness. I respect this wine, but I’m not so sophisticated and would have appreciated a little more weight.

  So much complexity here. A little more lively than the 2015 version. Great wine.

  Looking forward to try this, lemons, white flowers, minerals, buttery, beautiful nose, quite full bodied, rich, high acidity, needs more time I think but a lovely Blanc

  A private dinner (Restaurant De Lage Vuursche, Lage Vuursche, NL): Magical wine. Effortless ease, concentration and finesse, flawless varietal and terroir expression, salted lemon, huge energy, like a coiled spring, but at the same time so relaxed and zen-like. Pure and precise, tranquil but focused, inhabits “the thin places”, where the veil between this world and the otherworld is porous (thank you, Tamlyn Currin).

  Chose this to pair with raclette, which turned out perfectly. Loved the oxidative and sherry-like profile. I didn't find it as "sharp and chiseled" as WA suggested; instead, it seemed rich, round, and complex. Super wine that hit its stride within 45 minutes of opening. Do keep it a bit chilled, as it dulled with warmth.
