Intense, high-acid, sous voile style. Exceptionally long. I suspect this will age well.

I dig this. A bit oxidized. Funky but clean with a crazy long finish. Gahier all the way.

Just classic, classy Jura chardonnay. Part saline, part pear, all delicious. Thanks @Max Kogod!

His chard is so consistent year after year. Lighter ox, great depth in these wines.
