#2 of Jura Savoie evening
Nice aromatics with ripe apple, curry leaves, a hint of herbs, a whiff of salty caramel.
Bright acidity but with some aromatic mid palate. Apples, curry, a touch of ripe pear. Nice length & character with a peppery finish. This is so food friendly!

Happy New Year 🍾 — 3 years ago
100% Savagnin from vineyards in l'Étoile, a tiny appellation in the southwestern part of Jura, aged for 6 months in foudre followed by another 7 years in oak, under flor (never topped up). Intense yellow color. Quite complex nose, somewhat reminiscent of an old Fino or Amontillado, but without the intensity and salinity. Aromas of walnuts, spices (curry), a hint of burnt caramel and some subtle funk. Full bodied (it feels heavier than most Amontillados). Long, spicy finish with intense hazelnut flavors — 5 years ago
