J. de Villebois - IGP Val de Loire Pinot Noir Rosé 2020

Our Loire Pinot Noir Rosé is made from selected vineyards grown on ‘clay-sand' and ‘flint-sand' terroirs in the heart of the Loire Valley. Thanks to our Pinot Noir expertise in Sancerre, we've crafted this juicy Loire Rosé! Our Pinot Noir Rosé is a great wine to share with friends all year round! Blessed with a bright light rose-peach color. The nose reveals some fresh raspberry flavors followed by a red fruit bouquet (grenadine, blueberry, sour cherries). The palate is silky, juicy with an airy freshness. The intense black-currant and red cherry aromas dominate the mid-palate while the long lasting grapefruit flavors nicely compliment the zesty finale. Produced in the heart of the Val de Loire on clay and sand soils and clay with flints soils. The Pinot Noir grapes are harvested at night to benefit from the cold Loire temperature. The grapes are gently pressed at a low pressure in a pneumatic press to get our beautiful Rosé color. The juices are fermented in stainless steel tanks during 15 to 20 days at low temperature (14 to 18°C). The Pinot Noir Rosé is bottled in the winter after a few months of aging on fine lees to preserve the aromatics.
