This was still fermenting a little in the bottle. Actually pushed the cork out of a couple of bottles on the shelf.m Meant I couldn’t sell them so staff had to drink them. Delicious! — 9 months ago
Matured for 42 months in 300- and 400-liter oak vessels, the 2020 Savagnin Côtes du Jura Vigne Aux Dames is alluring. Precisely sculpted lemon peel, yellow apple, chamomile and a dash of dried blossom are front and center. Vibrant and tensile on the medium-bodied palate, the 2020 is alive and kicking. Closing with persistence on the sapid finish, it deserves a round of applause. (Nicolas Greinacher, Vinous, August 2024)

Absolutely phenomenal. Notes of vanilla, butterscotch, and honeysuckle without a single note of traditional oaky butteriness. — 4 months ago
Let it breath for up to 2 hours. It matures and mellows out and becomes quite balanced and good. — 5 months ago

The complex 2020 Savagnin Côtes du Jura Cuvée du Professeur unwinds with prominent notes of saffron, dried chamomile, ripe pear, yellow apple and a touch of jasmine. Powerful and concentrated, the 2020 is a transparent reflection of the warm vintage, but the steely acidity cuts through like a scalpel, flawlessly preserving freshness. Focused, persistent and saline on the finish, the 2020 is simply awesome. (Nicolas Greinacher, Vinous, August 2024)
