Trousseau Gris is something of a viticultural rarity these days. We think that it is a variety that needs to be rediscovered, and what better way than by trying a bottle? This is a veritable high-wire act; light on its feet, wildly floral yet savory with visceral depth. An inebriating blend of summer melon, stone frit, white tea, and wet rock weave with finessed length and elegant palate presence. 
17.5/20 - Pale orange-gold. Smells of unripe peaches, orange peel, and white flowers. Brisk flavours of orange peel, unripe peach, apricot pits, and wet pavement have a lovely faint salinity to them. Fantastic acidity and tension, with both the stone an fruity aspects of the wine combing to be simultaneously aromatic, lean, and crisp. Very delicious. - Alder Yarrow, JancisRobinson.com
90/100 - Very minerally on the nose with dried peaches and spicy pears following through to a medium-full body with apple skin and mineral undertones. Drink now. - James Suckling 

Pale pink salmon colour from extended contact with skins; floral notes with peachy undertones.
The grapes are harvested from forty year old vines at Fanucchi Wood Road Vineyard in Russian River Valley.
Jolie Laide keeps it traditional and press the grapes by foot.
Ready to drink now but will keep for another couple of years to come.
Perfect for a fish starter.

Jolie-Laide

These remain some of the most unique, compelling wines being made in Sonoma today. I can't recommend them highly enough.
- Antonio Galloni

Jolie-Laide started out as a one-man operation based in Sebastopol, California. In his first vintage, Scott Schultz made 500 cases of wine and has slowly ramped that up to about 3000 cases. Today, it is a family affair... Read More >>
