Just over 30, he’s young but deeply passionate — one of those people who goes all-in on everything they do, and whose dedication shows in the precision and brilliance of the wines.\nHis Chardonnay was the standout for both Chris and Jess. ‘La Marquette’ is Benoit’s most classical expression of Jura Chardonnay — a study in tension and mineral depth that bridges old world and new, and a reminder that Jura’s Chardonnays belong in the same conversation as Burgundy’s greats (not surprising, given Benoit’s training in Burgundy with producers like Arnoux-Lachaux and Amélie Berthaut).\nIt definitely benefits from air or a little time in bottle, but is easily one of the best Chardonnays we tried this month.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e We love it with… Comté, roasted chicken, grilled herb-stuffed trout\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eType: White\u003cbr\u003e Vintage: 2023\u003cbr\u003e Size: 750mL\u003cbr\u003e Grape: Chardonnay\u003cbr\u003e Region: Arbois-Pupillin, Alagni, Jura, France\u003cbr\u003e Vinification: Farmed sustainably, some organic practices.
