Jura, France
Tonight we opened the 2020 Domaine Labet Lias Les Juvéniles made with Chardonnay grown on blue clay and limestone soils (known as ‘Lias’), hailing from 30-60 year old vines in the lieux-dits of La Pellerine, Le Crêt, Arteau. 🌱
It underwent fermentation with wild yeast followed by 17 months aging on the lees in 228L oak barrels.
The color is a luminescent golden hue. After giving it a swirl, the aromas and flavors are singing!
It offers notes of flint, toast, fresh quince, honeydew, starfruit, yellow apple skin, juicy white peach, lemon peel, white blossom, chamomile, cream, sage, and hazelnut.
On the palate this wine is dry with structural symmetry and textural richness. It is mouth-coating with a long-elegant finish.
