This one is not to be missed; Beaujolais ros� is an uncommon sight EVERYWHERE, including in Beaujolais. Though production of this bright, refreshing style has increased in recent years, it's still exceptionally rare. Less ros� wine is made in Beaujolais than white wine (and they make very little white wine), but their ros�s are more than mere curiosities. Expect lifted red fruit, a touch of pepper spice and a tangy, refreshing acidity from this wine, which is crafted from Gamay. An ideal sipper to accompany a casual backyard lunch.
