Red White Sparkling Rosé Spirits GiftsLearn about Trousseau — taste profile, popular regions and more …
An intensely hued red wine grape indigenous to the Jura, Trousseau can make powerful wines with aging potential. Parentage analysis shows that it is related to Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc and Savagnin. Though no one is certain how or why, Trousseau made a long journey west across France and the Iberian Peninsula well over 200 years ago to take a second home under the alias, Bastardo, in Portugal. It is also permitted in the production of Port.
