Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a bright, pale-gold color with a lively sheen. The nose typically leans toward crisp orchard fruit, citrus peel, white flowers, and a subtle nutty or stony edge, reflecting both Chardonnay’s character and Jura’s distinctive cool-climate expression. On the palate, this wine is likely to be fresh and textured, with clean acidity, flavors of green apple, lemon, pear, and a mineral backbone that gives it lift and definition. While enjoyable young for its vibrancy, it should also have the balance to develop additional complexity over the next few years.

Production
Sourced from Jura’s cooler terroir, the wine benefits from soils and a climate that naturally favor freshness, tension, and aromatic clarity in Chardonnay. Details on harvesting and vinification are not provided, but wines from this region are commonly crafted with careful picking and restrained cellar work to preserve purity and site expression.

Food & Serving
This style of Chardonnay pairs beautifully with roast chicken, creamy pasta dishes, mushroom risotto, freshwater fish, aged Comté, and other nutty Alpine cheeses. Serve chilled at around 10–12°C; decanting is not necessary, though a short aeration can help if opened very young.
