1983 Camille Loye Arbois Chardonnay Cuvee St. Paul. I was surprised how fresh this wine was after 30 years. Lots of juicy stone fruit, but with hints of spice, golden raisins and dried porcini mushrooms.

Was unsure about this cause it had some bad reviews but decided to try anyway because I like Jura wines and think it’s an underrated region. I can see why people didn’t like it but I did my best to appreciate its uniqueness. Deep orange-y brass color, thick oily legs. Honeycomb, cocoa butter, soy sauce, orange blossom, shredded coconut, grilled banana on the nose, kinda smells like a brandy or a light sherry. Sharp liquor-like palate that also reminds me a little of brandy, with similar tasting notes - fairly well balanced soy-saltiness, syrupy-sweetness, woody acidity with notes of honeysuckle, lavender, creamy cocoa butter, and stiff alcohol. My husband says it reminds him of some dry orange wines, and it is indeed pretty orange. Unique and interesting to try but don’t think I’ll get another.
