In 1951 Georges Dubouef realized the marketing potential of new wine laws in France that enabled producers in the Beaujolais region to release wine that had only just been put into the fermentation tanks weeks prior. Due to the Carbonic Maceration method of fermentation these wines were fruity and fresh and ready to rock and roll on a moment’s notice.
Races were organized to bring the wine to the Paris market as advertising gimmicks and spread throughout the world. Originally released on the 15th of November, in 1985 the release date was changed to the third Thursday of November. This little bit of marketing genius combines the release of the wine with Thanksgiving thereby creating an immediate identification of Beaujolais Nouveau with this season.
This fresh and fruity wine is bottled only a few weeks after harvest and is meant to be enjoyed immediately upon release. Crisp, fresh and thirst-quenching, Beaujolais Nouveau Rosé has notes of white peach and citrus. Perfect to serve as an aperitif with fresh fruit and cheese or with a slice of pie for dessert.
