There are few wines that so consistently deliver utter pleasure and deliciousness as this utterly perfect rendition of Trousseau Gris from @jolielaidewines. Pick you hipster wine adjective - smashable, crushable, glou glou - it fits them all. Goes down in a sunbeam of peach and citrus kissed berries with gorgeous floral tones with just a whisper of salinity. Mouthwatering and joyous. Even though I buy this by the case, I never, ever have enough.

Nice balance of lush melon with earthy characteristics from the extended skin contact.

This is a fantastic wine, but absolutely not my flavor profile. It’s incredibly fragrant and perfumey, bordering on an orange wine with the body of a dry rose. Worth trying, get ready for an experience.

Amazing balance with great flavors. Such a nice earthiness/umami quality in the finish. This is a crowd pleaser for such an obscure wine.

Beautifully complex wine, light but layered. Hints of melon on the nose and a cross between rose and orange on the mouth. Truly wonderful.

Insanely beautiful color, lots of body, strawberry, pear, and watermelon. Gorgeous label to boot.

Floral, orange peel, crisp. Seems lighter / like it’s seen less skin contact than prior vintages
