L'Etoile Blanc White Blend 2015

One of my favorite Jura producers. This is classic Jura White. Oxidized Jura at its best. Bruised apple, briny, sherry like, lots of acidity, med tannins. Not to everyone’s taste but definitely mine. This is classic Jura at it’s best. — 8 months ago

L'Etoile Chardonnay 2018

Possibly one of my desert island wines ( assuming there is food & a few other wines I can bring…). Jura chard w some Savignin, done in an oxidative, full bodied style. Have come back to this most years & never tires. The color! Amber yellow w orange & sienna tints; on nose my old painting studio with oils, hearts of palm, & orange peel. On palate full & more refined than the nose, with white asparagus, dried mango, & cooked fennel, amongst other flavors. Had post meal, was like a meal unto itself. — a month ago

Golden yellow. High viscosity. Cherry like, oxidized flavor. Chalk and minerals. Herbaceous Spices. Matured citrus. Nuts. Medical herb acidity and sourness. Slightly honey sweet. Complexity even in young vintage. Savagnin Domaine Philippe Vandelle 19 @4675, Toscan, 240824-240921 — 3 months ago

Face Nord Grand Cru Extra Brut Champagne Blend

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The wine pours a deep straw, bordering yellow color with medium+ viscosity and a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of raspberries, lemon, brioche, and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose though the fruit seem rounder on the palate than on the nose. The finish is medium+. A fairly agreeable Champagne. Disgorged in October 2022. — 7 months ago

Loved this, good tannins, leathery volcanic action but also nice red fruits with a slight funk
