So good. Needed my alpine Jacquere fix. Super mineral nose wiry alpine scents. Amazingly clean. Palate is crisp and clean with terrific minerality and crisp 14 acids. Nice richness as well and it’s a lingerer. Terrific wine. Amazingly lithe and mineral. Love the alpine vibe.

Completely non-neutral Jacquere that shows pine and pollen-scented wind, a hint of mushroomy savoriness then has a fresh honey finish that lasts and lasts. My first bottle (finally getting around to the post) from @Lyle Fass and it sure seems like it could be the best Jacquere ever? @Lyle Fass any idea if/how develops with bottle age?

Terrific acid and purity. The depth and texture of this is devastating. Long.

Wow. Jacquere at its finest. Hay, green hay more like. Amazing precision and purity. Complex and elegant. This is VERY fine wine.

Ja Ja hits the spot. Perfect summer wine. Mountain fresh minerals. Palate has bracing acidity and loads of minerals. Amazing texture and freshness. Like drinking a mountain stream. Very long.

A green mountain stream. Stoney and fresh, herbal. Lilting weight. Cool, as in the sensation, but also cooool. Delicious.
