2025 Chateau Rouge (25CHR)

This light-bodied nouveau red wine is the closest thing you get to a Beaujolais Nouveau on this side of the Atlantic. A red wine that is designed to be consumed young, this nouveau style of French wine is smooth to drink and has subtle aromas. With light elements of raspberry and spring rain on the nose, this wine shines in its drinkability and table pairings. Flavors of tart cherry, red currant, and violet from its Chambourcin components are complemented by subtle wisps of rose petal and apricot from our estate-grown St. Stanislaus grapes. Pair this wine with an afternoon of charcuterie and soft cheeses, or at dinner with your favorite pork, chicken, or turkey dishes. This unique, young red wine is one that the French would call "glou-glou" (easy-drinking). You won't find a high-quality nouveau red of this style anywhere but at the Chateau!
