2022 Michel Gahier Arbois Trousseau “La Vigne du Louis”

The 2022 Michel Gahier Arbois Trousseau “La Vigne du Louis” is a distinguished red wine from the Jura region in France, crafted from Trousseau grapes cultivated in the Montigny-lès-Arsures area. This cuvée is renowned for its expressive aromatics and balanced structure.
The wine showcases a brilliant ruby-red colour. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet of red fruits such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by hints of leather, pepper, and subtle smokiness. The palate is fresh and savoury, featuring silky tannins and a supple mouthfeel. Flavours of red berries are balanced by a vibrant, mineral freshness, leading to a finish with lingering cherry notes. While approachable in its youth, this wine possesses a good tannic structure and is recommended to age for at least five years to fully develop its complexities.
