From the esteemed vineyards of Domaine Arnaud & Sophie, this 2023 Bourgogne Rosé Passetoutgrains represents a classic expression of Burgundy's regional rosé production. The Passetoutgrains appellation is distinctive for its traditional blend of Pinot Noir and Gamay, a practice that predates many of Burgundy's more specific varietal designations. This particular cuvée is crafted to highlight the aromatic freshness and vibrant fruit character inherent to these two noble grapes when vinified as a rosé.
The winemaking approach for this rosé typically involves a direct press or a short maceration period to extract delicate colour and aromatics, while preserving the wine's inherent acidity and purity of fruit. The 2023 vintage, known for its early ripeness and generous fruit, has yielded a wine of immediate appeal and refreshing vivacity, making it an excellent choice for immediate enjoyment or short-term cellaring.
Tasting notes
The wine presents a delicate pale salmon hue in the glass. On the nose, an inviting bouquet of wild strawberry, redcurrant, and a hint of cherry blossom emerges, underpinned by a subtle mineral freshness. The palate is crisp and dry, with a lively acidity that carries a core of bright red berry fruit. A clean, refreshing finish with persistent fruit notes makes this a highly enjoyable and versatile rosé.
