Clos du Tue Boeuf Pineau d'Aunis 2022

Grape varietal & region: Clos du Tue Boeuf Pineau d'Aunis is a natural wine made from the Pineau d'Aunis grape, which is grown in the Loire Valley of France. The wine is produced by Clos du Tue Boeuf, a family-run winery that is known for its organic and biodynamic farming practices.

Taste profile: It has a bright red color and aromas of red fruits, herbs, and spices. On the palate, it is light-bodied with refreshing acidity and flavors of red cherry, raspberry, and black pepper.

Winemaking process: The wine is fermented with natural yeasts and aged in old oak barrels for several months to enhance its flavor and texture.

Bright & Easy Reds

Easy drinking red wines with bright fruit aromas and low tannins. The wines are often released without much aging in tank, oak barrels or bottle, and are meant to be drunk early

These wines typically can be nejoyed without food, and are usually served cooler. They can be light bodied wines like Beaujolais, or light extraction styles that do not emphasize tannin & color extraction
