2017 Domaine Bornard 'Trompe La Mort' Trousseau

$169.00

This unique cuvée name hints at the story of this trousseau. “Trompe la Mort” is someone who defies death or who has escaped it by miracle and that is what happened with this wine. 2017 was a year with severe frost so there were not enough grapes to make all the normal cuvées. This wine is made from the juice that normally would have made Le Ginglet and Garde Corps and also a little from the lieu-dit Le Feule, which Philippe owned separately with two friends (one is Edouard Hirsinger, the owner of the legendary La Maison Hirsinger in the centre of Arbois).

The wine was unstable for several years, with volatile acidity and mousiness. Tony was fearful for many years that the wine would not be able to be sold but patience was rewarded and eventually it settled and he was happy to offer it. 12.5% ABV.
