Tasting Profile
Aromatics The nose is expressive, featuring bright red fruit notes such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by subtle hints of spice.

Winemaking Approach
David Trousselle employs organic farming practices and minimal intervention in the cellar. The grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed, and undergo a natural yeast fermentation with gentle extraction. The wine is aged in oak barrels with minimal new wood, allowing the terroir to shine through. Notably, the wine is bottled with low sulfur levels (25–30 mg/l), emphasizing its purity and authenticity.
Food Pairing:
This wine pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, including roast white meats, meaty fish, and red sauces. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for both casual and formal dining occasions.
