2020 Domaine Courbet Cotes du Jura Chardonnay 'Les Isles' 750ml Bottle

Grown in a soil of chalky limestone, clay and marlstone. This small-production cuvée come from young vines that are crushed and put through a skin maceration for 18 hours. The fermentation and aging process takes place half in neutral oak barrels and half in stainless steel tank. This wine is topped off, or ouillé, during the aging process in barrel. The result is a gorgeous wine with a lemony, white-flower inflected nose, bright acidity and a nutty, savory quality.
