Michel Gahier Cremant du Jura 2015 Grape:Chardonnay and aging in a combinationGahier Cremant du Jura: 100% Chardonnay aged 12 months on the lees before being disgorged and bottled without dosage. Firm and mineral, with laser sharp acidity, and slight bitter note of toasted almond. Like the rest of the wines at Gahier, production is quite small. We typically have access to about 40 cases a year.
