Our New Russian River Rosé Will Be a Favorite Spring Wine

04.14.20

EnRoute Russian River Rose We’ve released our first-ever Russian River Rosé, and this captivating new EnRoute wine is as delightful to drink as its name implies! Called Facile à Boire (translation: easy to drink), our EnRoute rosé fills the palate with notes of wild strawberries and just-picked cherries. The perfume hints at cherry blossoms and wildflowers, and the wine possesses bright acidity that literally makes your mouth water. A distinct minerality lingers on the finish, reminding us that the best rosé wines can be both refreshing and sophisticated. “I’m often asked what is rosé wine? " says EnRoute Winemaker Michael Accurso. "While there are so many types – and shades! – of rosé, the simplest definition is that it’s a pink-hued wine made by allowing the skins of red wine grapes to have contact with the wine for only a short time. "Our red grapes happen to be some of the best Pinot Noir we can get our hands on, with hand-selected Russian River Valley Pinot from as far north as our Amber Ridge Vineyard and as far south as the cool Green Valley sub-appellation coming together to make a 100% free run rosé of Pinot Noir. In the winery, we specifically craft our rosé so that the final wine possesses a rounder mouthfeel yet allows us to preserve that burst of mineral-acidity that makes it so refreshing. It’s a dynamite spring and summer wine, but honestly, EnRoute Facile à Boire is a Russian River rosé I’d uncork in all seasons.” Filled with mouthwatering flavors and a zip of minerality, we’re pairing this delightful new Russian River wine with board games, books, tangy chicken salads, grilled fish and back porch sunsets. Ready to uncork your own bottle of EnRoute Facile à Boire? It’s available exclusively from the winery. You can get yours here. EnRoute Russian River Wines
