Domaine Benoit Badoz Trousseau Marnes Rouges Côtes du Jura 6pack 2022 13% 750ml
TASTING NOTES
AROMA
There is much aromatic generosity and complexity to this Trousseau, with an expressive and ripe nose.
PALATE
The palate has a supple texture and bright flavours of blue plums and cherries, with notes of white pepper and minerality. A fruity wine with light, elegant tannins and lovely persistence.
WINEMAKERS COMMENTS
Benoit cultivates according to the specifications of organic farming, with the aim of maintaining a natural ecological balance and biodiversity. Grasses are planted in every other row and no chemical products are used, instead ploughing of the soils. The variety of native yeasts on the grapes permits wild fermentation and the use of minimal levels of SO2.
FOOD MATCHING
It is a perfect accompaniment for white meats (poultry, veal, sweetbreads), duck breast, and cheeses with character such as an aged Comté with mature, powerful aromas.
VINIFICATION
The hand-harvested trousseau à la dame undergoes a rigorous sorting and is 100% de-stemmed. The fruit undergoes 4 days of pre-fermentation cold maceration at 8 Celsius, before the spontaneous fermentation in wide stain- less steel vats, with occasional pumping over. The Trousseau completes the malo-lactic fermentation in July when it is bottled.
