Michael Jackson
77- Nose
- Fragrant, piney, a hint of the sea.
- Palate
- Light but firm body. Lightly oily, creamy, malt background.
- Finish
- Delicate sweetness and salt.
- Comment
- For an islander Jura is often thought to be something of a lightweight, but it has hidden depths.
Jim Murray
80- Nose
- A flighty aroma, sea-inspired yet slightly citric.
- Palate
- A backbone of firm oak guarantees a dry start and middle.
- Finish
- Softer and sweeter with waves of vanilla.
- Comment
- A delicious and sophisticated dram with impressive depth and almost perfect weight.
