Domaine Gilles Berlioz - Le Jaja 2021 (750ml) Regnie

Domaine Gilles Berlioz - Le Jaja 2021 (750ml) RegnieThis is one of the emblematic cuves that forged the reputation of Domaine Gilles Berlioz. It is 30 year old Jacqure vines planted on steep clay limestone hillsides, slow gentle pressing, low temperature fermentation. Tasting such a racy Jacqure literally shed light on this underrated region. Le Jaja shows a powerful and deep mineral floral citrus nose. After a few minutes, white fruits round out to become juicier, and it finishes long with a hint of

blending traditional techniques with modern technology to produce wines that reflect the region's diverse microclimates and rich biodiversity

but know that it has tremendous potential for even better with time
