Beaujolais Nouveau Rosé
Tasting Notes
The wine offers intense aromas of fresh fruit, redcurrant, pink grapefruit and white peach, with a splendid finish of citrus zest.
Vineyards
The grapes for the Nouveau Rosé are sourced from the southern part of the Beaujolais region, which is a patchwork of terroir ranging from sand, clay and limestone to granite and schist. A difference in altitude and latitude influence the style of wine. Some of the grapes were picked by hand, in whole clusters, while others were machine-harvested. The average age of the Gamay vines are 20 years old.
Winemaking
This Rosé did not spend any time on lees and underwent juice racking. Traditional semi-carbonic maceration took place over eight days, followed by malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, at temperatures between 66 and 68° F.
