Here’s how the tasting went: A wine that was put in a decanter in advance is waiting in one of the (multiple) cellars, and then it's poured into the glasses in silence, without saying what it is, waiting for everyone’s reaction. My reaction was, \"Wow! This is completely different! What is this? It has a completely different set of aromas, including chicken broth (salty rather than sweet), yeast, pollen, saffron... What is this?\" The wine felt elegant and light, but with lots of inner strength; it felt light on its feet but punched you in the face with its pungent flavors and endless aftertaste. My head was spinning, and I couldn't get myself to spit the wine. \"Yes, it's the 2008,\" said Ganevat, full of himself. And rightly so! This is coming to the end of its élevage, but it was still with the lees; so, I suspect the wine is pretty stable and should be bottled soon. It has mind-boggling length and persistence, the nose is fascinating, and the balance is gobsmacking, with a salty finish. Another head-turning Vignes de Mon Père! I recommend that you start negotiating your allocation with your favorite caviste… Drink 2020 - 2040.\" - Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate (6\/19)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: Georgia;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #b51a00;\"\u003e98 points:\u003c\/span\u003e \"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 2008 Côtes du Jura Les Vignes de Mon Père is a total knockout. Exploding from the glass with an intoxicating bouquet of candied peach, tangerine peel, baked apple, savory chicken broth and a drizzle of honey, the 2008 delivers extraordinary depth and complexity. Subtle waxy elements and suggestions of hay weave through the profile, adding even more aromatic layers. The palate seduces with a rich, juicy flavor concentration, yet vibrant Savagnin acidity cuts through like a razor, preserving the wine's invigorating freshness with surgical precision. A stunning finale, both nutty and saline, lingers with exceptional length, underscoring the singularity of the 2008. This is a white Jura that stands alone, a testament to the mastery of Jean-François Ganevat and his team.
