White

Traditional Jura wines are made in an oxidative style - that is, the contents of the barrels are allowed to run down naturally, losing volume via evaporation through the pores of the wood. This 'oeile' style, meanwhile, follows the more standard winemaking practice of topping up the barrels to prevent oxygen ingress. This has an enticing nose of baked apple, sweet vanilla and spicy cedar. The palate is defined by clean, fresh acidity with a twist of lime, balancing out the rich, broad and dense palate. Flavours of stone fruit and baked apple are framed by wood and sweet spices, while on the finish there are some green fruit notes alongside a floral, waxy lift. An intriguing, complex white which will be familiar enough to fans of Burgundy. Only old oak was used to mature this wine.
