Poolside hijinks while sipping a bubbly Crémant du Jura made using the ‘traditional method’ following the same rigorous winemaking process as Champagne, but with different minimum aging requirements, permitted varieties, among other things.
This wine is comprised of mainly Chardonnay alongside Savagnin, Trousseau, Poulsard, and Pinot Noir.
It has grace, balance, and freshness with notes of yellow apple, pear, freshly cut herbs, and savory qualities that are tough to describe.
It has character! It’s highly quaffable and enjoyable. What’s more is that it’s an incredible value.
Cheers to these fleeting summer days in the northern hemisphere!!! 🥂🍾 🌞

@Delectable Wine this is the Crémant du Jura, Blanc Brut… — a year ago
1988 vintage. Very light bodied with some tannins. Flowery with a hint of fruit and and earthy backbone. It tastes a little oxidated in a nice way. — 10 months ago
A treat from Nick & Anthony! Domaine Rolet cepage Poulsard cuvée speciale. @delectable Took only 10 minutes to open up Perhaps beyond its peak but plenty of fruit and perfect acidity. Elegant. — 2 years ago

Always such a unique wine. Recognizably more oak and oxidization in this vintage but maintains great acidity. Not for everyone, but definitely for me. — a month ago
