Excellent poulsard. Bright red fruit. Super light. Tons of acidity. Not at all barnyardy on the bottle I tasted (had been open a while). — 5 years ago

Esse deu água na bocaNeeds a little time to sing. I wasn't really digging the wine when it was first opened. Felt too ripe and rich, especially when compared with the Overnoy. But with air, the Grusse really started showing itself.
Stunning texture and density. Still shows its richness, especially on the mid-palate, but balanced by piercing acidity and lengthy chalkiness. Really toasty and nutty, baked apples, lemon zest, kinda creamy, saline, oyster shell. It's really quite beautiful. Pity there wasn't any left for day 2. — 5 years ago
what i remembered from rosforth the day it came in. clean, bright, nice fruit, but tart and lean. a bit like a 2 -d print of a 2010 overnoy poulsard. that sounds like an insult or an absurd compliment depending on how you read it, but i mean it as a vast compliment with a handicap. — 7 years ago
Firstly the nose is driven by strong Sherry notes. Gets better & more harmonious with air. The Sherry turns into curry plant, fennel blended with hints of apricot & yellow stone fruit. Like a laser beam on the palate, very salty, vibrating and grasping. Long finish. — 7 years ago

One of my favorite classic - non oxed - Jura chards. Elegant and deep nose, with incredible minerality and maybe some apple skins. Super pretty nose and deep. Some flintiness upon opening but it settles very quickly. Palate just is awesome. So much energy and intensity. Salty, citric, with acid that just will not quit and a sweeping minerality. Fruit will be hard to find on this palate but that’s a-ok. It’s so juicy, textured and complete. What a finish. Really lovely structure and some blood orange and pink grapefruit hints. Unusual for Chardonnay but so good. Very very impressive. — 4 years ago
