Ouvert le matin et laissé en cave pour une lente aération. Un nez époustouflant, magnifique, complexe, des couches d’arômes se succèdent à un rythme incroyable, fraises, fruits rouges, rose, épices, probablement un des plus beaux nez de DRC que j’ai bu. Une bouche d’une finesse et d’une élégance sans pareil, pas le plus puissant mais quelle classe et profondeur, d’une longueur inouïe. Bu sur 4 heures juste pour en garder pour l’évaluer et n’a jamais bougé.

Open in the morning just to give it a slow dose of air, the most incredible DRC nose ever and i am lucky to have drank quite a few, and one of the most amazing nose on a wine i ever saw. Layers and layers of complexity. The palate is classy,elegant, deep and gorgeous, not the most powerful but what a wine, the length is unbelievable. — 3 years ago

Entry-level Chardonnay from 25-35 years-old vines rooted in clay and limestone soils. Aged in oak for 6 months. Fresh, mineral. Hints of yellow apple and yeast on the nose. Tart green apple flavors, saline on the palate. Long, tasty finish. Great wine, incredible value — 5 years ago

Similar notes to prior bottle opened about one year earlier, but this is showing as fresher and more lively, Yum!

Nose has maraschino cherry, white pepper, dry leather, dried red raspberry, distant barnyard, dried orange peel, granite quarry and dry earth.

Palate has dried cherry, dried raspberry, white chocolate, sweet red pepper, black cherry, old leather with medium acidity. This bottle is showing decent tannins, 3H decant. Enjoy 2022-24, in proper storage.

Our second successful preparation of this dish tonight; chicken, apples and cremé à la normande (cream, onion, mushroom & calvados), Jura looks to accompany cremé & calvados just fine. — 5 years ago

Really liked this. Had a sweetness to it but was a balanced and refined sweetness along with minerality. — 6 years ago

2016. Capsicum and chalk. Quite a hit of new oak that integrates with aeration. A big, structured wine for the vintage. Should have quite a long life. #châteaudebrézé #saumur #cabernetfranc — 8 years ago

Full bodied and complex wine. Notes of blackberry, currant, pepper and floral. Wine feels a bit young even after decanting for 2+ hours. Excited to see what it will be in a handful of years. — 4 years ago
