2024 Jolie-Laide Trousseau Noir Red Blend

A rare Californian red blend featuring Trousseau Noir (45%), Cabernet Pfeffer (30%), Gamay (15%), and Poulsard (10%). Scott Schultz of Jolie-Laide sources these obscure varieties from a small handful of organic growers across Northern California, building the wine around varietal curiosity. Inspired by the wines of the French Alps, particularly Jura and Beaujolais, this distinctly Californian collage showcases layered spice, lean structure, and a mineral edge. The result is delicate and airy with surprising pedigree, celebrating nuance and originality in a register rarely explored in California winemaking.
