2021 Domaine des Carlines "Tremoulettes" Chardonnay Côtes du Jura Blanc
Review Date: 09/2025
This is my kind of wine! Lush and creamy with the kind of long finish that both invites you to savor the moment and go back for another sip. There is a bright undercurrent of orange and meyer lemon that helps cut through the roundness and adds a lovely citrusy lift to the finish. Made with chardonnay and aged in 3-5 year old barrels, this can hold its own with white burgundy twice the price. Last little note for those who may have been burned by Jura before, this is not a vin de juane, which is to say it's not aged under a layer of flor and it won't taste oxidated the way sherry does :)

Notes
Patrick Ligeron's Domaine des Carlines is making an impression not only on Jura geeks, but also on fans of terroir in general. The domaine vineyard holdings lie within the Château-Chalone sub-AOC, each one delivering its own particular expression of the Chardonnay and/or Savagnin grapes.
