It took me a good 8 to 10 years into my wine tasting and discovery journey to start liking and appreciating oxydative wines (sous voile) from jura. But now I like them more and more every time. Something in the mouthfeel which is unmistakable...
The nose is very oxydative with walnuts, bruised apples... The palate is superlative. A huge acid drive, great width, a dusty, buttery mouthfeel, some subtle nutty touches along with apple, before a massive, spherical and buttery mid palate that powers up an extremely long finish with butter, nutty notes and a nice freshness that makes it really great. It's clearly not for everybody but it's very much for me 😅

Many of the same flavors as a tokaj but without the sweet

Right wine, right place, right food (fried carp at Relais d'Istria).

Gaat prima met hartige gerechten, een echte eetwijn. Meestal betekent dat dat er een fout gemaskeerd moet worden en in het geval van oxidatieve Jura-wijnen klopt dat ook wel, zij het een bewuste fout 😄. Geen score.
