Arnot-Roberts Trousseau North Coast 2017
North Coast Region, California, United StatesWow. Pouring a light rhubarb hue, this perfumed trousseau was sourced from three sites across the North Coast and volcanic cobbles over river stones. Whole cluster and native fermented before 11 months in a combination of neutral French oak barrels, puncheons and foudre. Wild blueberries, fine leather, autumn berries, anise, plum with a light dusting of ash. Tannins are whisper fine and acidity is lofty, all of which welcome a chill and a chugging. Since founding their winery in 2001, childhood friends Duncan Arnot Meyers and Nathan Lee Roberts have been needle moving revolutionary producers in Cali.Tasted: 09 November 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:USA | $35.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
