This bottle sings with classic and exotic chardonnay notes, and follows through with exceptional Jura length. Notes are marshmallow, jasmine flower, walnut skin, sweet cream soda on the nose, with baked pear and fruity confection on the palate. My favorite new Jura producer, Lambert’s wines remind me of everything I love about the region.

Dynamite nose. Baked apple and pear. Complex minerality. Hint of vanilla and lovely subtle confectionary aromas. Terrific spice and the aromas are so elegant. Great depth and nuance to the nose. Wow what a palate. Sappy and pure with enormous depth and sap and stunning levels of finesse. So so pure. Long. This is a superb wine. Really blown away here. Great concentration and just so much going on. This has blown me away. Structured and so long. Amazing. Nose gets floral with air adding to the nuance and complexity. Benchmark Jura white for me.

Great concentration & richness; appealing saline edge cutting through lemon curd, candied fruits, hint of ox/walnuts. Nice work.
