The Bordeaux Clairet appellation, located in the prestigious wine region of Bordeaux, France, is distinguished by its deep and alluring rosé wines. These wines, which benefit from AOC (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée) status, offer a perfect balance between the characteristics of red and rosé wines. Typically made from Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc grape varieties, Clairets are renowned for their intense colour, resulting from a longer maceration than that of traditional rosés.

With fruity aromas of strawberry, cherry, and raspberry, Bordeaux Clairets captivate with their freshness and roundness on the palate. They pair perfectly with a variety of dishes, ranging from summer salads to grilled meats. The temperate climate of the Bordeaux region, combined with its unique clay-limestone soils, imparts these wines with their distinctive character.

For wine enthusiasts and cellar managers, the introduction of Bordeaux Clairets can bring a welcome diversity to any collection. Using wine cellar management software can facilitate the tracking and maintenance of these bottles, ensuring optimal tasting at each opening.
