Vintage: 2018
Varietals: Trousseau
Farming: Organic/Biodynamic, Unfined/Unfiltered, Low added sulfites
The special "Trousseau à la Dame", rarely seen, has small, loosely-knit clusters. The vines are grown on the Côteaux des Corvées, the best slope of Arbois for Trousseau, Marne du Lias, covered with eboulis calcaires. This cuvée is remarkably smooth, and subtly leathery, with quiet notes of white pepper. A treat for fans of this varietal.
Destemmed directly in the vineyard, fermentation will begin in the cell, pumping over will allow fermentation to continue in the juice. Aging in new barrels for a few months for part of the cuvée will round off the elegant tannins of this grape variety. Vegan
