FEATURES
The 2020 Morgane Turlier Paul et Serge Vin de France is a characterful white wine from the Jura region, known for its distinctive, terroir-driven creations. Morgane Turlier is recognized as one of the most promising young winemakers in the Jura, working with old vines across small parcels and employing a sensitive, low-intervention approach to farming. This particular cuvée is a Chardonnay, sourced from old vines planted over clay and limestone in Cramans, and aged for two years in foudres. The 2020 vintage reflects the cool continental climate and limestone-rich soils, imparting tension, elegance, and remarkable freshness. Tasting notes describe a clear medium to pale gold color, with an enchanting and complex nose offering notes of gunpowder, citrus, lemon pie, pear, citrus blossom, and almond. On the palate, it is tense with vibrant energy, featuring lemon curd, green apple, salt, a hint of cream, and minerals, leading to a medium-length finish. It's a powerful, layered wine that combines ripe stone fruits, minerals, and spice to brilliant effect. 【A profound and excellent Jura Chardonnay from a rising star winemaker】.
Food Pairing: This Jura white wine pairs beautifully with refined yet authentic cuisine. Consider local cheeses like Comté or Morbier, delicate charcuterie, poultry in cream sauce, veal blanquette, roast pork with herbs, fish in sauce, shellfish, or seasonal vegetable dishes.

Event Suggestions: This wine is ideal for a carefully prepared meal with enthusiasts, a tasting evening focused on terroir wines, or as a centerpiece bottle for a Sunday lunch where time is taken to savor each glass and follow the wine's evolution. It's also a fantastic choice for those looking to explore unique and expressive white wines from the Jura.
