 Oxidative Jura-style wine:

Oxidative’ is a term denoting a white wine that has been deliberately exposed to oxygen, usually by not topping up the barrels regularly.” The key word here is deliberate; a wine can become oxidative, rather than oxidized, when a winemaker intentionally allows oxygen to interact with the wine during the winemaking process.

Controlled oxidation can add richness, complexity, and desirable, umami-driven aromas and flavors to white wines in particular. If preventing oxidation highlights primary notes like fresh fruit, floral, and herbal notes, oxidative winemaking does the opposite, bringing layer upon layer of savory, earthy, nutty aromas and flavors to the wines.
