Domaine Labet Cremant du Jura 2022

$98.00

100% Chardonnay from vines aged 6–45 years, rooted in Bajocien and Bathonien limestone. The wine spends a disciplined 19 months on lees in stainless steel, then undergoes a second fermentation in bottle followed by a further 11 months on lees before disgorgement. Zero dosage.

Serious, chalky density with a linear, vertical spine. Power is reserved at first — compact and precise — then reveals increasing layers of texture and length as the wine opens. Do not worry about losing bubbles: give it time to unfurl after opening, or decant into a carafe; patience rewards with more nuance and poise. This is a refined, contemplative Cremant for those who value structure, mineral drive, and long, expressive persistence.
