Pascal Jousselin

Touraine Petit Cot

Domaine Du Rin Du Bois Pascal Jousselin, a delightful red wine from the Touraine region, showcases the intriguing Petit Cot varietal. This wine is a masterstroke from the Loire Valley, celebrated for its rich winemaking history and exceptional terroir. The wine displays a beautifully deep hue, inviting you to explore its complex profile. You'll find a harmonious balance between its medium-bodied structure and the pronounced acidity that gives it a lively, refreshing feel. The tannins are firm yet integrated, providing a solid backbone to the wine. Fruit intensity is prominent, with dark fruit notes such as blackcurrant and plum taking center stage, complemented by subtle hints of spice. This Petit Cot remains dry throughout, creating an elegant finish that lingers exquisitely on the palate. A stunning example of Touraine’s ability to produce character-rich, food-friendly wines, making it a fantastic choice for pairing with hearty dishes and decadent cheeses.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
