(It’s evening). Bright straw yellow. Pronounced nose. Blossom, peach, sweet yeastiness, gentle nuttiness, golden apples and pears, spicy chicken skin soup, sweet baking spices (vanilla, cinnamon). Deep and intense but round and broad, not piercing.
Dry, high acid, high alcohol, full, rounded body, hint of spritz, very saline, nice long finish. A bit austere. Couldn’t quite cope with brilllat savarin but great with the others.

Really interesting orange wine from the Jura. Almost Sauternes-esque on the nose. Wine really opens up after an hour or two to reveal herbal notes like a light yellow chartreuse. — 5 years ago
A first for me. Right off the bat I was hit with barnyard funk, a fruit driven balsamic note and very chewy/crunchy cranberry. Best enjoyed slightly below cellar temp, this still needs some age or a solid hour in the decanter to express itself. Lots of potpourri, tar, and herbal/mineral traits. I was only able to enjoy a glass of this shortly after it was opened so I’m sure it blossomed after I left and was cooled down. Need to re-visit this unique blend. — 6 years ago

That's my jam. Smells kinda funky (nail polish) but tastes incredible. Preserved lemon peel, high acid, long finish. — 2 years ago
Oxidative style, nutty, spice, orange peel, round mouthfeel and bright tangy acidity. 2-years in barrels without any topping or racking. — 6 years ago
Very light, and a bit earthy. Perfect summer wine. Even better a bit chilled. — 7 years ago
Checking in on this one. Purchased a case for the restaurant 2 years ago and it wasn't ready. Now it's beautifully subtle, quiet and peaceful as the place it comes from. I want to sleep naked in a bed with sheets that have the same texture as this wine. — 8 years ago
Unbelievable!! — 4 years ago
White peach, gooseberry, cave minerals, cigar box, sprite, and fry grease on the nose. Juicy stone fruit, minerally cave-aged mild hard cheese, tobacco spice, ginger ale and white pepper lingering on a thin but medium long finish. Very complex and interesting; fantastic value. — 5 years ago
Very Sherry like with mostly oxidative notes but little acidity from the Chardonnay or Savagnin shining through. — 6 years ago
Nutty Sauvignon Blanc wine. Perfect with my pairing for my trout — 6 years ago
