Domaine Rolet – Trousseau 2012 – Arbois

The nose is aromatic, fruity, well-balanced and offers elegance and a fine richness / intensity. It reveals notes of wild berries, plums and small notes of blackberry, lilacs associated with slight hints of raspberry, crushed red berries, zan, mushroom as well as a very discreet hint of spices, chocolate and an imperceptible touch of pepper. The palate is fruity, mineral, well-balanced, delicate, suave and offers an acidulous frame, a fine delicacy, precision as well as roundness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of cherry, cassis and small notes of blueberry associated with fine touches of small crunchy berries, zan, sweet spices as well as an imperceptible touch of flowers and tonka bean (in the background). Good length. The finish is slightly tight. Discreet chews on the finish.
