Trousseau Singulier

Domaine Tissot

The Jura’s fullest bodied red variety, Tissot’s expression shows a profound purity that is just intoxicating. With blackberry and brandied cherry notes amplified by peppercorn and a touch of oak spice and lovely floral flourishes, this Trousseau unfolds layer after layer in the glass. Its lithe structure gives it an ample palate and the finish lingers long and gentle. Hard to imagine another light bodied wine that holds in the mouth so well. This wine is fully destemmed so the tannin is all skins, bright and bold with just enough acidity to give that Tissot electric sensation on the tongue. To drink or to age?.. that is the question.
