Tasting notes for the Entre Deux Bleus 2016 - Les Miroirs (Kenjiro Kagami)

  • EYE: This Jura wine by Kenjiro Kagami presents itself in the glass with an intense and brilliant ruby red robe, indicating remarkable concentration. Its transparency and purple reflections suggest a memorable tasting experience to come.
  • NOSE: A complex bouquet where aromas of red fruits, particularly cherry and raspberry, intertwine with discreet spicy and woody notes. Subtle hints of licorice and tobacco add an additional dimension to this aromatic composition.
  • MOUTH: This wine exhibits superb tannic elegance, and its texture feels like soft velvet. Persistent flavors of red fruits are accompanied by delicate touches of vanilla and black pepper. The balance between freshness and complexity is admirably mastered, offering a harmonious and characterful tasting. The long and spicy finish underscores the characteristic finesse of this Jura wine.

 

In short: The "Entre Deux Bleus" 2016 cuvée by Kenjiro Kagami impresses first with its intense ruby red robe. Its complex nose, interweaving red fruits, spices, and woody notes, prepares for a rich aromatic experience. On the palate, the tannic elegance and the balance between freshness and complexity provide a characterful tasting. A wine to experience today or to keep in your cellar for another 5 to 8 years, to appreciate its development. This Jura red pairs perfectly with flavorful dishes such as roasted duck breast with wild berries, Morteau sausage with Puy lentils, or a sautéed mix of wild mushrooms.

When wine becomes like a mirror

 

Kenjiro Kagami, a Japanese citizen, was so in love with France that he decided to move here in 2001. Former Hitachi engineer, he was a wine enthusiast through and through. This immediately drove him to take winemaking lessons in Chambolle-Musigny (Burgundy). For two years, he honed his skills and strove to achieve his new dream: to create his very own estate and finally produce a wine that would satisfy him.

In 2010, his friend Jean-François Ganevat convinced him and his wife Mayumi to buy a house in the small village of Grusse, in the Jura region. On nearby limestone slopes, the now professional winemaker built his estate, the Domaine des Miroirs (“Mirror Estate” in English). An aptly-named winery, since “kagami” is the Japanese word for “mirror”. Because for Kenjiro, the work you do in the vineyard is reflected in your wine.

On his 3 hectares of land, Kenjiro Kagami cultivates Chardonnay and Savagnin, mainly. With only a tad of Poulsard and Trousseau here and there. His wines are 100% organic and the cuvées are vinified in old barrels, with no added sulphites, between four to five years. It's all very simple, but it works. The winemaker exports 80% of his production to Japan, which is also why his bottles are so hard to find in France.
