Trousseau Gris is a French grape variety made into white wine.

It is occasionally found in eastern France and was once widely grown in California under the name Gray Riesling.

[1] These days Trousseau Gris is mostly found in the Jura, Alsace, Lorraine and sometimes in the Champagne wine region.

The best wines are made when it is grown in much cooler conditions, but only in the coolest parts of the coastal area of California especially the Russian River Valley or in the mountains of the Jura.

It is a very meaty grape that doesn't like to release its juice and historically winemakers mistreated this grape with disastrous consequences but grown and handled properly, usually harvested around 23.5 brix, and gently pressed, Trousseau Gris has a crisp, clean, aromatic - flowery bouquet with flavors of fresh peaches, honeysuckle, pear, melon, delicate spice and tropical fruit.
