FEATURES
🏰 Domaine des Miroirs, led by Japanese engineer Kenjiro Kagami, is a cult Jura estate renowned for its natural winemaking. The 2016 Mizuiro Les Saugettes is a pure Chardonnay, farmed organically on steep clay-limestone slopes. Mizuiro, meaning 'light blue' in Japanese, evokes airiness and transparency, reflecting a wine that whispers rather than shouts. 【Pure, ethereal expression from the world's densest vineyard planting】 This wine embodies a perfect balance between technical precision and poetic intuition.
This incredibly rare white wine presents a pale straw yellow with delicate golden reflections. The nose offers fresh citrus, white flowers, crushed chalk, lemon zest, and a hint of fresh walnut with a slight oxidative nuance. The palate is tense yet silky, intensely saline, and long, delivering quietly powerful, almost meditative drinkability. It is deeply mineral with vibrant acidity and a crystalline, fine, and lingering finish. Some notes for the 2016 vintage describe it as fine, reductive, with lots of ripe fruit, clear, precise, dense, deep, and juicy.
🍴 Mizuiro 2016 is perfect with refined, delicate dishes where precision is key, such as raw seafood, seared scallops, young or aged Jura cheeses, tempura, or elegant Japanese cuisine.
🥂 An exceptional wine for intimate gatherings, contemplative tastings, or as a unique gift for a connoisseur. Its rarity and distinctive profile make it a conversation starter, best enjoyed when its subtle complexities can be fully appreciated. Serve very chilled to highlight its freshness and minerality.
