Domaine Maire & Fils Arbois Trousseau Vignes Aux Anes

This wine pours a cherry‑red colour. The nose offers ripe red fruits, think raspberry, cherry, with spice and peppery, herbal notes. On the palate the wine reveals both red fruits and savory depth (spice, leather, a touch of smoke). Domaine Henri Maire has been nestled in the Jura since 1632. Founded by a man named, Maire, for over 300 years, generations of Maires succeeded one another, strengthening the Maison’s expertise. For Domaine Henri Maire, the “Path to Gold” is an initiation to the richness and diversity of Jura wines.
