Funkadelic bubs! Starts out with a phenolic nose of hay, saddle leather, lanolin. Unexpected but delightful. This gives way to mineral and citrus notes with golden apple, lime, seashell and melon, all with a wonderful slightly oxidative Jura touch. Continuing into pear and more tropical fruit. Clean palate, zippy acidity, amazing concentration and finish. Really joyful, first-rate non-champagne bubbles. Deg 2019.

Not as in-your-face as Champagne so very drinkable. Some detectable RS. Fun.

Clean and crisp granny smith apple to start and then mellow almond and very food friendly.

Vinous Cremant du Jura. Pours clear gold. Toasted nuts and struck match on nose & palate. Medium/light fizz. Palate cleansing mineral finish. Akin to a sparkling version of the Patchwork Chardonnay. 12.5% ABV. 50% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Noir, and 5% each Poulsard/Trousseau. Partial barrel aging, with second fermentation by addition of vin de paille. 0 dosage. Disgorged 04/2019.
