May 17, 2024 - First time trying this. Great wine. Cherries and raspberries with an interesting earthiness and long finish. Felt like it could have easily gone another 10 years

December 8, 2023 - This wine showed very well. It has mellowed, softened, earthy, loamy, expressed the place and totally enjoyable (this is not a real time note, so not as descriptive as I might be)

April 19, 2022 - Pale garnet colored with soft orange notes towards the rim. In the nose ripe cherries, smoky bacon and bayleaf. On the palate cherries, dried tobacco, dried green herbs and an intense meaty touch. Medium bodied with a medium acidity. Tannins are nicely integrated. Good structure and depth. Medium complexity and a nice medium long finish.
This already feels quite mature and I don’t think it will become more interesting with more years on it, so better drink up within the next 6 years. (IG) -

December 23, 2017 - Polished, pretty, and perhaps a little more user-friendly and lacking in soul than French examples of trousseau that I've had. But so damn pretty.

November 20, 2017 - Nicely balanced, refreshing but with length and succulence. Less wild and funky than some of the Jura Trousseaus, and to my taste missing a certain extra dimension. Don't think this is quite as good as the critics think it is (or maybe just too young).
