Drank nearly a month after it was first opened, it didn’t quite win any hearts on this occasion. Very nutty, perhaps a touch too much discernible VA, spices for sure, plus some vegetal and dried fruit notes. Could have used more drive too, I felt. Probably not the best sample.
NB: Not the Chateau Chalon, but the Chardonnay Sous Voile Cotes du Jura.

Complex nose with oxidized aromas. Three years under flor. Deep golden. Lemon, hay, nuts. High acidity and long finish.

Dry, high acid, high alcohol, medium plus body, gently tannic grip, salty, nuts, golden fruit, round effect but not rounded, very long finish. Amazing
