Côtes du Jura Jean Macle 2016
The wine
Jean Macle’s Côtes-du-Jura is one of the region’s finest bottles. Sophisticated and exemplary, it is perfect served with a traditional dish like chicken with morel mushrooms, as well as refined seafood such as lobster with lemon butter sauce. This wine is raised in oak barrels for three years. Its nose is expressive, with nutty aromas and notes of honey. It tastes at once rich and powerful, quite typical of yellow wines, with flavours of nut, almond, spice that emerge. The citrus finish is pleasantly long-lasting.
