Arbois Rouge, Trousseau, “Le Clousot”

Situated on a southwest-facing slope beneath his Grands Vergers vineyard, Le Clousot is a parcel of the domaine’s younger vines from which Gahier produces a Trousseau in the same fashion as his others. Though lighter in color and structure, typically with a hint of reduction and a trace of trapped gas, it has good length with a vibrant, mineral freshness and hints of smokiness. A perfect introduction to the reds of Gahier.
