Jean & Jean Paul Versino Vin de France Cuvee Le Petit Oursan NV trincadeira wheat fields

wheat fields

The nose offers every expression of the lemon: the juice

until you've tried this one

This is a wine of contrasts

about waves of picket fence tannins that need time to integrate and flavors that will bloom over the course of ten years

Jean & Jean Paul Versino Vin de France Cuvee Le Petit Oursan NV trincadeira wheat fieldsAromas of Plump cherry, raspberry compote, charcuterie fennelly sausage or mortadella and white pepper mixed with a melange of dried herbs. The palate is filled with raspberries and black cherries, peppercorns, full bodied and etched with tannins, tarry earth, and sage. The finish includes touches of lavender, dried fruit, and pepper. If this all sounds good, give thanks to Jean & Jean Paul Versino, winemakers at the storied Chateauneuf du Pape house
