#1 of Jura Savoie evening
40/40/20 blend of Chardonnay / Jacquard and Mondeuse Blanc
Clear & pure as a alpin glacier.
Shy herbs, salty notes and faint whiff of underripe lemon.
On the palate this is crisp, lean and so juicy. Great purity and minerality. So devoid of fruit and yet with a lot of character. This is surprisingly nice and highly drinkable. — 4 years ago

Fruit filled glacier water with depth and a mineral finish. Pretty long for an ‘instappertje’ — 5 years ago
50% вина 12 месяцев выдерживалось в бочках из французского дуба. Яблочно-сливочное. Яблоки, спелая груша, свежий миндаль, ваниль, тосты, нюансы мёда, вербена, штрихи орехов. Округлый, мягкий, очень приятный вкус. Хорошая кислотность. Долгое послевкусие с кислинкой. Г-н Паркер конкретно этому году поставил 90 баллов, не смею спорить. Большое удовольствие. — 5 years ago
Great structure, nice body, chewy, with verve. Earthy and savory, baked clay, underbrush, smoke and menthol. Just a tad austere. More generous fruit would have elevated this.
It hit another level on day 2, with the flavors crystallizing and more dried fruit, coffee, and milk chocolate coming on. Complex, food friendly and delish! — 4 years ago
This Chilean Pinot Noir offers a nose that is heavy with cola, black tea and coffee grounds. The savory aromas actually outweigh the fruit. It is a medium-weight wine, not very deeply tinted, and it rides light on the palate. The acidity is brisk and the tannins firm. This is not a Burgundian take on the grape, for certain. It is more playful than elegant, more rustic than beautiful.

Nose of tart fruit and spice which shows up in the palate as well. Silky tannins that take a little time to build up. Easy to drink for a medium bodied red. It's holding up well to hearty spicy chilli, and the spice of the food is letting the fruit show more through the spice notes of the wine. Curious to see how it develops when I have some tomorrow. — 11 days ago
