Leathery, earthy, mushroomy with red currants and dark red berries aromas; light body, elegant, ripe sweet fruit, earthy flavours, dried herbs at the end, good length

Funky, dirty, Jura. Light with great acid. Even better with a slight chill

very clearly natural fermentation. some tomato leaf and herbal garrigue. lots of CO2. very easy drinking but not the best....I would say so so....puzelat makes some wine in similar style but certainly excels. possible that pulsars just isn't to my taste.

Not sure what’s up with these older reviews, perhaps Loreline’s wines or grape sorcery have gotten remarkably better over time but tasting the 2018, it’s so pretty, crunchy, bright and clean. Not your pale, ploussard juice. Dried cranberries, strawberry fruit leather and saddle, concentrated. Dried rose, cherry compote, sassafras. Barbaresco-esque on the nose. Along with the Borde, best ploussard to date.

I get aroused just looking at this wine, incredibly rich, almost compost like smell, but drinks light and refreshing. Great with a nice aged comté and sexual desire.

Tasting notes from the group included: "old stuffed animal" "athlete's foot" and "sewer rain." Mellowed out a bit with some time in the glass, but still...if you serve this at your next dinner party, you got some 'splainin to do.

Nose of fresh rain in the sewer, I kid you not. Reductive action in the fermenting, very natural ambient yeasty. Light with some tannic notes, good in the mouth, some decent finish. Jura after all.
