Fresh, snappy and sassy. Much like @pain_and_glory.

Only other producer in Rotallier besides Ganevat, whom she trained under. Stunning wines.

Mineral, briney, lemony tang to taste with some serious acid. Funky, leesy nose, that aldehyde character, with some dried orchid fruits in the mix too. Has so much interest. Killed it paired with oysters

Super reductive and the bottle was killed before anything else started to show. Sad.

Wow, a stunner of a Chardonnay. Jura ouille it is! A distinctive powerful nose of oily acidic Chard that smacks me out of pre dinner stupor and then roared across the palate into a complex biting finish. What a Chard. Only three bottles from GL for this vintage, also ‘09 ‘15, not sure how many left.
