Le Clot de l'Origine's "Le Trouble Fait" is trouble like a sunny Sunday. Trouble like a new crush. Trouble like a good Piña Colada. Trouble like all three of those things rolled up into an afternoon you devour every moment of, pretending Mondays are not a real thing. And trouble because Mondays are real and you drank the whole bottle because this Muscat d'Alexandrie (of the OG Vitis vinifera fam) tastes & smells as if the sun was squeezed and fresh pineapple juice rained down from a clear spring sky while you frolicked through fields of long grass, sage, and gardenia. Juicy but dry, it's everything you want from an aromatic white wine without the cloying weight.

45 year old Muscat vines. Skin contact. Unfiltered. Fresh, bright, high acid. Tropical and floral notes, jasmine, star fruit, lychee and a little lemon juice. Killer pairing with salmon sashimi.

100% Muscat, 3 weeks skin contact Orange Wine, Natural Wine, Biodynamic. 12% ABV.
Almost Neutral nose some floral and apple cider type notes.
Dry apple cider, earthy notes, dried apricot, hint of bitter candied orange, fine tannin texture. Food wine.
Slightest of cloudiness with some sediment noticeable in bottle. Med+ acidity.,
Not as exciting as L'Original which is an orange wine by same producer, featuring one of my favorite varietals, Macabeu. Wine quality and style are still fantastic, in ‘Le Trouble Fait’. Happy with my purchase decision, and will continue to keep an eye out for and recommend wines by Marc Barriot.
Was expecting more floral and fruit, as experienced with ‘ZBO’ by Brash Higgins, and ‘Small Batch Series Viognier’ by King Family.

Pineapple funk. Floral bouquet. But blue cheesy in the best way possible 💖
