Tasting notes
The Magnum of Rolet Arbois Trousseau 2000 reveals a garnet color with brick-tinted hues, a sign of graceful maturity. The bouquet is intense and complex, unfolding notes of stewed strawberry, leather, and wild garrigue herbs. On the palate, the wine is rich and well-evolved, with supple, rounded tannins and layers of confit fruit that linger on a persistent, savory finish. A refined Jura red that showcases both the character of Trousseau and the beauty of age.
More About The Winery
Domaine Rolet is one of the most iconic estates in the Jura region, renowned for showcasing the area’s full diversity of terroirs and grape varieties. Founded on a vision that bridges tradition and modernity, the domaine produces an extensive range of wines — from expressive Savagnin and Chardonnay whites to elegant Pinot Noir, Trousseau, and Poulsard reds, as well as the region’s celebrated Vin Jaune and Vin de Paille.
Today, the domaine is managed by three families with deep roots in wine and entrepreneurship: the Devillard family (esteemed Burgundy winemakers behind Château de Chamirey, Domaine des Perdrix, Domaine de la Ferté, and Domaine de la Garenne), the Flambert family, and the Dupuis family. Together, they have elevated Rolet to a new level of excellence and international recognition.
The estate’s philosophy rests on meticulous vineyard care, low yields, and harvesting at optimal ripeness to capture the unique identity of Jura’s soils. The result is a portfolio of wines that balance precision and authenticity, offering both immediate pleasure and long-term aging potential.
