This is made from the Trousseau grape in the Jura, France's smallest wine region. Pale ruby in color, clear and bright. There are many Rose's that are darker in color. A very unique wine. The nose has cherries, confectioner's sugar and a slight herbal note. Medium bodied. A very soft texture yet also tart acidity. Lots of cherry and strawberry fruit with a white pepperiness to it. Can a wine be elegant and rough at the same time? This one seems to be. Complex. It works better with some food to tame the acidity. It should probably be drunk over the next five to ten years. This would go well with a Ham & Bean soup.
