Description

This release of the Jurassique Chardonnay is more in the mood of the Ouille wines of Jura rather than the full on flor-aged styles.

Sourced from a single vineyard site in Tarrington, the fruit gets whole bunch pressed, barrel fermented then left for 12 months in casks for elevage. It went through full malo, giving a beautiful round mouthfeel.

Only a tiny amount of this has been produced... so get in quick!

94 Points - "The name, of course, speaks of inspiration from Jura and ‘left of centre Burgundy producers’.

Slinky white of just around medium weight, briny/saline characters in the mix of green apple, pink grapefruit, just ripe pineapple, cashew nut savouriness and faint parmesan cheese character pleasingly mixed in. Long, luxurious stretch of flavour with a tight, powdery finish, and between that an initial sluice of freshness that feels oh so very appealing. A quietly complex wine of high pedigree, is the message." - Mike Bennie (The Wine Front)

MINMAL ADDED SULPHITES

HARVESTED AT 13.1 BÉ, WHOLE BUNCH PRESSED DIRECT TO OLDER BARRIQUES & ONE HOGSHEAD LEFT TO FERMENT ON ITS OWN TIME WITH NO ADDITIONS AT ALL. LEFT ON ULLAGE FOR 12 MONTHS, FULL MALO. RACKED TO TANK FOR 6 MONTHS THEN BOTTLED. ENJOY!
