2022 Maison Riche Bordeaux Clairet Dry Rosé, also know as a “Super Rosé,” utilizes 100% Merlot grapes and expanded skin contact prior to fermentation to produce its brilliant red color. A favorite of British aristocracy prior to the liberation of France in 1453, this storied wine has been an under-the-radar favorite for centuries, yet is practically non-existent in the American market. Skin contact before fermentation gives this wine its brilliant, appetizing color: peony pink with carmine highlights.

This “super” rosé has fresh raspberry and cherry on the nose, with more red berries on a surprisingly round palate, and a soft but refreshing finish.

Enjoy with cheesy risottos, light-sauced pasta dishes, grilled beef or turkey burgers, or as a refreshing stand-alone in place of a light red.

Tastings – Silver Medal, Highly Recommended
