'''Trousseau''' ({{IPA|fr|tʁuso|-|LL-Q150 (fra)-WikiLucas00-trousseau.wav}}) or '''Trousseau Noir''', also known as '''Bastardo''' and '''Merenzao''', is an old variety of red wine [[grape]] originating in eastern France.<ref name="Wine Grapes">{{cite book |title=Wine Grapes - A complete guide to 1,368 vine varieties, including their origins and flavours |last=Robinson |first=Jancis |author-link=Jancis Robinson |author2=Julia Harding |author3=José Vouillamoz  |year=2012 |publisher=Allen Lane |location=London |isbn=978-1-846-14446-2 |pages=1093–1095 }}</ref> It is grown in small amounts in many parts of Western Europe; the largest plantations are today found in Portugal, where most famously it is used in [[port wine]]. It makes deep cherry red wines with high alcohol and high, sour candy acidity, and flavours of red berry fruits, often complemented - depending on production - by a jerky nose and an organic, mossy minerality.
