Domaine Labet
Lias Les Juvénilles Jura Chardonnay
Jura, France
Tonight we opened the 2020 Domaine Labet Lias Les Juvéniles made with Chardonnay grown on blue clay and limestone soils (known as ‘Lias’), hailing from 30-60 year old vines in the lieux-dits of La Pellerine, Le Crêt, Arteau. 🌱
It underwent fermentation with wild yeast followed by 17 months aging on the lees in 228L oak barrels.
The color is a luminescent golden hue. After giving it a swirl, the aromas and flavors are singing!
It offers notes of flint, toast, fresh quince, honeydew, starfruit, yellow apple skin, juicy white peach, lemon peel, white blossom, chamomile, cream, sage, and hazelnut.
On the palate this wine is dry with structural symmetry and textural richness. It is mouth-coating with a long-elegant finish.

Sep 14th, 202016/20 (88/100) Яблочно-цитрусовый аромат с заметной нотой редукции. Умеренная тельность, высокая кислотность, меловая текстура. Неплохой баланс. (06.04.2019) #vinnatur2019

Better after an hour, but beautiful stoniness and Chablis like minerality. Rich in the sense that it bring a heftier brioche and pear aspect, but has tangy lemon, distinct salinity, and an encompassing sourdough character to round it all out. Delicious

Top!!! Grande mineralité, du fruit, de la fraîcheur. Manque un peu de longueur... mais c'est très bon quand même.

Fantastic young Jura Chardonnay. Just looks of nice tropical fruit, peaches, lemons and hints of pineapples. Label says it is aged in old oak barrels. Not oak is detectable. Perfect for a miserable michigan day.

Nez délicat et minéral
Attaque franche, nette, acidité très imposante marqué par une grande mineralite
A regoutter dans quelques annees
