Nouveau

2008 Minnesota Red Blend

The Alexis Bailly Vineyard Nouveau, a delightful red blend from Minnesota, showcases a vibrant ruby hue that captures the essence of the wine's youthful charm. With a medium body, it strikes a harmonious balance that's both approachable and satisfying. The vibrant acidity adds a refreshing lift, enhancing the wine's overall brightness and appeal. This blend is characterized by its moderate fruit intensity, offering delightful notes of red berries and subtle hints of spice, which create an inviting bouquet. Tannins are present but soft, providing just enough structure to support the wine without overwhelming it, making it a perfect choice for casual gatherings or cozy evenings by the fire. The wine's off-dry nature adds an extra touch of sweetness, making it versatile for pairing with a variety of dishes or enjoying on its own.

From rich and powerful California Zinfandel to spicy Oregon Pinot Noir, and from full-bodied Washington Merlot to aromatic New York Riesling, the wines of the United States are nearly as diverse as its population. People have been making wine in North America from European vitis vinifera vines since the first French settlers arrived in the 1500s. Progress stalled along the way by pests and diseases that the vine had never encountered in its homelands, but today wine is produced in all 50 states. With more than 260 AVAs to discover, each with its unique climate and landscape, wines of the United States have much to offer.
