Rosé pour Buller' Domaine des Canailles 2023

The “Rosé pour Buller” from Domaine des Canailles is a classic sparkling wine on lees, perfectly interpreting the nouvelle vague of natural wines. It is made with pure Gamay, the emblematic grape of the Beaujolais region, born from a spontaneous crossing between two ancient varieties: Gouais Blanc and Pinot. The sparkling process reveals a new face of this grape, characterized by a rich fruity aromatic profile and a pleasant freshness. A bottle with a young and immediate character, suitable for tasting as an aperitif among friends or to accompany a platter of flavorful cured meats.

The pet-nat “Rosé pour Buller” from Domaine des Canailles is the result of the experience of a winery located in Ternand, in the south of Beaujolais. The estate covers 8 hectares, managed under organic farming since 2005 and applying biodynamic practices since 2019. The vineyards are situated at an altitude between 450 and 550 meters above sea level, in an area with a mild climate very suitable for viticulture. The grapes come from Gamay vineyards of over 50 years of age cultivated on soils derived from the disintegration of granite rocks. At the end of the soft pressing with a brief contact on the skins, the must is vinified in white. The spontaneous fermentation takes place only using indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The refermentation occurs in the bottle according to the Ancestral Method without final dégorgement and leaving the yeasts at the bottom of the bottle.

The sparkling wine “Rosé pour Buller”, made by Domaine des Canailles, is a lively version of sparkling wine on lees, a type increasingly loved by enthusiasts in search of bright and original bubbles. It presents a beautiful cerasuolo pink color with a continuous perlage and a delicate and soft foam. The bouquet is characterized by fragrant aromas of citrus zest, floral nuances of orange blossom, aromas of pink grapefruit, pomegranate, raspberries, sour cherry and hints of yeasts and bread crust. Pleasantly fruity and rich, it has a juicy sip that extends towards a finish of pleasant citrus freshness.
