Beaujolais primeur Rosé Les Griottes

Beaujolais Nouveau rosé is a wine of unequalled freshness. Its rareness and originality make it a great wine to wow your friends with. The pale pink robe with fuchsia notes is a surprising reminder of pomegranate seeds!

Personnalité de la cuvée

Pierre-Marie has never made his rosé by bleeding (that is to say, drawing the juice off a vat of red Beaujolais to make it more concentrated) but has always vinified his as a wine in its own right. We decided to make Beaujolais Nouveau rosé in October 2011 after one of our customers asked us to. This is an out of the ordinary product.
