Château L'etoile Du Sud

Domaine de Montbourgeau

L'Etoile Chardonnay 2018

Possibly one of my desert island wines ( assuming there is food & a few other wines I can bring…). Jura chard w some Savignin, done in an oxidative, full bodied style. Have come back to this most years & never tires. The color! Amber yellow w orange & sienna tints; on nose my old painting studio with oils, hearts of palm, & orange peel. On palate full & more refined than the nose, with white asparagus, dried mango, & cooked fennel, amongst other flavors. Had post meal, was like a meal unto itself. — 16 days ago

L'Etoile Blanc White Blend 2015

One of my favorite Jura producers. This is classic Jura White. Oxidized Jura at its best. Bruised apple, briny, sherry like, lots of acidity, med tannins. Not to everyone’s taste but definitely mine. This is classic Jura at it’s best. — 7 months ago

Les Champs Rouges Les Parcelles Rares Jura Sud Revermont Chardonnay

The favorite wine from my tasting with Matt and Paul. Stunning. layered, complex and evolved through the night. Unfortunately, the only bottle I had. Labet is getting nearly impossible to source. Excellent pair with crab mac and cheese. — 6 months ago

@Doug Powers A solera-style Black Grenache, so old, but deceiving. Heck I just bought my own bottle last year; this was from my best buddy's cellar.
