Revisiting some previous acquaintances this week. J.Dorbon is really showing their long game with this vibrant Chardonnay, shimmering with acidity after 10 years. Layered experiences of under/over-ripeness make up for a rather direct finish. Ripe melon and cooked squash dominate the palate, and the fruit quality is green apple and salty, preserved lemon.

Needs some time to show once opened, oxidative, notes of citrus fruits, lemon, buttered toast and spices

No joke, but this bottle of Chardonnay may have changed my life.

The color of urine after a day in Death Valley. Yet still remarkably fresh. Very good.

Semi dried yellow fruit. A touch of yellow autumn leaves on the nose. Lemon dominated palate, high acidity, long finish.

Something about mushrooms & cheese as fall gets into swing makes us crave Jura wines. Scintillating palate, just enough ox to keep things interesting. Zinging acid only just starting to fade. Palate is roast chestnuts, fungus, lemon curd. Medium finish. Beautiful work. #jura
