Bloodlines of the Volcano: JA Chardonnay “Quintessence” 2017 is a distinctive Jura white from selected old-vine Chardonnay parcels. It pours deep golden, reflecting both its Jura terroir and the gentle oak influence. On the nose, seductive aromas of quince and yellow plums slowly evolve to reveal nuances of dried fruit, toasted nuts and sweet almond. The palate is precise, balanced and expressive, with ripe yellow fruit and citrus interplay, followed by notes of green apple, warm spice (nutmeg), honey and a hint of freshly churned butter. A persistent minerality and refreshing acidity complete the profile, making it an elegant yet compelling Chardonnay with both richness and clarity.
