Trousseau is a grape that we love for its wonderfully eccentric character. This is a wine that Catherine makes to show more this variety’s more meditative side so expect plenty of brambly fruit and herbal, gamey fruit.
Catherine Hannoun is based in Port Lesney, a small commune about 15 minutes north of Arbois which exudes the tranquility many associate with the hills of Jura. Having worked for many years in film, it was clear after working with Emmanuel Houillon that this was the area for her, and in 2009 bought a small parcel of vines and her current cellar. She now has 3.2ha of vineyards of Chardonnay, Savagnin, Trousseau and Pinot Noir around Marnoz and Arbois.
