Château-Chalon Savagnin 2015

I was delighted to taste the 2015 Château-Chalon together with proprietor and winemaker Hélene Berthet at this iconic winery. An untamed powerhouse reflecting the warm vintage, it bursts from the glass with enticing aromas of walnuts, almonds, hazlenuts, dried apples, dried peach, crushed flowers, dried lemon peel, hay and a pinch of cumin spice. The palate boasts an off the charts richness and expands vertically, revealing layer after layer of concentrated dried fruits and a beautiful nuttiness, concluding with a bold and powerful finish. This is a world-class Vin Jaune capable of long term bottle aging. — 4 months ago

Savagnier Côtes du Jura Savagnin 2017

First time trying this varietal on its own. Was a very new aroma and taste to me. Big amounts of tea on the nose and palate, with a vegetal/mineral character and wet hay. Bright acid and funky cool. — 4 years ago

La Poirière Côtes du Jura Chardonnay 2018

All the funky, stony and herbal action you’d expect from a Jura Chardo. Candied lemon, appleskin, rockdust, flint, herbaceous/saline and woolly notes, ginger and jasmin. Lovely touches of bitter almond skin in the finish, which is long and dry but refreshing. Full of tension and nervosity. Very very tasty and interesting and - @ 20€ - a fantastic alternative for the high reputation wines of Ganevat, Labet and Tissot (just to mention a few), although there’s probably a tiny step back in complexity. — 2 years ago

Trio Côtes du Jura Trousseau Blend 2019

Toast, strawberry, cherry and hay on the nose. It's rather subtle and delicate. The palate is very well designed, with a strong acid backbone, a nice silky texture with strawberry, a velvety tannin wall before a fruity, silky finish. It's very smooth and juicy, and dangerously easy going. It was served all along dinner but it was showing best when paired with cheese (Saint nectaire fermier was a hit pairing) — 3 years ago
