His “La Vigne de Louis” bottling comes from a plot of old-vine Trousseau, named after Gahier’s grandfather, who originally planted the site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 vintage is made with organic farming, native yeast fermentation, and no fining or filtration. The wine is aged in old foudres, without sulfur additions at bottling, and shows the lifted, wild personality that Jura reds are prized for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTrousseau is one of the Jura’s signature red grapes—more savory and structured than Poulsard, but still delicate. This bottling is pale and transparent, with flavors of wild strawberry, pepper, underbrush, and crushed rock. It’s light in alcohol but grippy and earthy, best served cool or lightly chilled, and a dream pairing for mushrooms, charcuterie, or roast poultry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e“La Vigne de Louis” offers one of the most honest, soulful expressions of Trousseau, with just enough Jura volatility to keep things interesting—but always in balance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rosenthal [RWM]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44567946362937,"sku":"NYC-1-RWM-`GHTL231`-060225-4","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/Michel-Gahier-Arbois-Rouge-Trousseau-La-Vigne-de-Louis-2023-Red-Wine-Flatiron-Wines-Spirits-New-York_8b749967.jpg?v=1772030621"},{"product_id":"michel-gahier-arbois-rouge-trousseau-la-vigne-de-mademoiselle-2023-750ml","title":"Michel Gahier, Arbois Rouge Trousseau La Vigne de Mademoiselle, 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003e“La Vigne de Mademoiselle” is one of Michel Gahier’s signature single-parcel Trousseaus, and perhaps his most elegant. Grown on limestone-marl soils just outside Arbois, this plot yields a lighter, finer expression of Jura’s earthy red grape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 vintage was farmed organically and fermented naturally, as always with Gahier. The wine is aged in old oak barrels and bottled unfined, unfiltered, with minimal sulfur. This is Jura winemaking at its most transparent: no makeup, just grape and place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to Gahier’s “La Vigne de Louis,” this bottling is slimmer and more perfumed, with notes of red currant, cranberry, rose petal, and white pepper, plus a faintly herbal, foresty undertone. The tannins are barely there—soft but present—and the whole thing finishes with lift and a little edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eServe it cool and treat it like a light-bodied Cru Beaujolais or a rustic red Burgundy with mountain roots.
