Les Horées 'Rose Bonheur' 2021 (rosé)
Les Horées 'Rose Bonheur' 2021
Pinot Noir
Burgundy, France
This is a one-off cuvée, produced in the difficult 2021 vintage. With a more uneven ripeness for this later, cooler vintage, Catharina decided to make a second cuvée from her parcel of Beaune Les Prévolles. The goal was two-fold: first, she wanted to only select the very best grapes for her red cuvée; and second, she took advantage of the opportunity and directly pressed a second selection to produce her first rosé. The result is lovely, breezy, vibrant and refreshing.

On the palate, Les Horées 'Rose Bonheur' 2021 reveals notes of summer fruits, including ripe strawberries, raspberries, and juicy watermelon. These notes are complemented by hints of floral undertones, lending an elegant and refreshing character to the wine.
Its crisp acidity and subtle mineral undertones contribute to a well-rounded and satisfying finish.
The name "Les Horées" derives from Greek mythology. Catharina says there are many different interpretations, but she describes "Les Horées" as marking the change in seasons. The goddesses of the seasons are called "Horae" (hours).
