2018 Arbois Chardonnay Clos de la Tour de Curon, Bénédicte et Stéphane Tissot, Jura

This is Stéphane's "Grand Cru", and comes from a superb walled vineyard that encloses the eponymous tower, overlooking the town of Arbois. Its old vines and limestone soils produce outstanding wines every year, though in tiny quantities. There is huge intensity in the wine, that benefits from a little air when poured. As you swirl it, layers of nutmeg, Amalfi lemon, crystalised ginger, and jasmine scent emerge. It has so much drive and persistence on the palate, and it is not unreasonable to compare it with Grand Cru white Burgundy. World class.
