A thrilling example of traditional Jura winemaking, this white blend shows intense, savoury aromas of hazelnuts, green almonds, undergrowth & spice. In the mouth it has a freshness that balances out its evolved aromatic character, as well as great length on the salty finish. ...

From the 'garden of superior wine' on a bed of silty clay over oolithic limestone (as per in Chassagne-Montrachet), this perfumed off-dry Gewurztraminer lifts the soul with lychee/rose petal notes. It's so delicate, softly spoken with such a rich gorgeous flow of fruit on the finish thanks to the luscious vintage. ...

A lovely golden colour & floral/grapefruit notes are the immediate impressions made by this great Grand Cru Riesling. On the palate it is mouth-filling with full-bodied citric fruit, a hint of sweetness on the mid-palate before the acidity kicks in & it finishes dry. This is text-book Alsace Riesling; Rich & full, but with a dry finish, superb! ...

Pronounced rich nose with honeyed peaches, ripe grapes & a touch of exotic lychee wafting up from the glass. On the palate, bright acidity & a gently perfumed palate of roses & lychees compliment the luscious peach & apricot fruit. A long, minerally finish with a delicate hint of hand cream. This is a medium dry wine. It's a good alternative to a Spatlese Riesling. ...
