Description

Vina Belje produces many of Croatia’s most awarded reds. The new Cuvée rouge brings together pinot crni, merlot and frankovka, varieties that thrive in Baranja, in a balanced off dry wine with elegant ruby colour, gentle tannins and fragrance.

Rouge from the Cuvée range blends three outstanding Belje varieties grown on Banovo Brdo in fertile Baranja. It expresses the character of premium frankovka, pinot crni and merlot. Belje Merlot was the first Croatian red to win a Decanter gold medal. Rouge has an elegant ruby colour.

Like Cuvée Blanc and Rose, it combines complex flavour with exceptional freshness. Sour cherry, plum and sweet cherry lead, with spice and floral violet. The palate offers juicy, off dry fullness and gentle tannins.

Too cold, its fruit is muted and tannins become more apparent; too warm, it can feel heavier and alcohol may dominate. Pinot Noir and fruitier reds are generally more enjoyable slightly cool.
