Freixenet USA has released Premius Bordeaux Clairet 2005 ($10) a dry rosé wine from Bordeaux. This new release joins the well-known Premius Bordeaux line, which includes the varietally-labeled Merlot-Cabernet Sauvignon blend and a Sauvignon Blanc.
Made from a blend of 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon , Premius Clairet 2005 is made with grapes primarily grown in the Entre-deux-Mers region in Bordeaux. A brilliant sunset pink color, this dry, lively rosé features a youthful raspberry nose with hints of roses and violets. Premius Clairet’s balanced acidity makes it a versatile pairing for chilled seafood, chicken salad or roasted poultry.
Of this new rosé release, Freixenet USA VP of Marketing David Brown comments, “The interest in rosé wines in the US market has dramatically increased, driven by an ever-savvier consumer who demands fresh, affordable, food-friendly wines. Freixenet is in the position to supply the wines the market most wants, and we are working to meet that demand through our wine estates around the world.”
Distributed nationally, this new release comes from the Bordeaux Collection of the Ferrer family of Freixenet. The family’s growing global collection includes 15 wine producing properties in the world’s most important wine regions, including Spain, California, Australia, Argentina, Champagne, Mexico and Bordeaux. Imported by Freixenet USA of Sonoma, California.
