Beaujolais VV La Rose Pourpre 2014
About the wine
Our first ever Beaujolais... and boy it's a beauty
- "I've been making Beaujolais for the past 22 years... so I'm thrilled to start a new chapter with Naked as your first EVER Beaujolais winemaker."
- "Angel funding allowed me to access the very best grapes from older, established vineyards (that's what vielles vignes means in French). The yields are lower and the grapes are smaller, this helps us to obtain more powerful, yet mellow wines."
- "Made with 100% Gamay grapes, my Beaujolais is brimming with all sorts of fruits from blackberry to pear - it is well balanced, very soft and mellow in the mouth."
