Crafted in the style of cru Beaujolais, the Bella's Essence reflects both vibrancy and depth. Silky on the palate with flavors of cherry, raspberry, and subtle spice, it’s a delicate red that shines when served with a slight chill. Perfect for warm afternoons and lingering summer nights.
Inspired by the highly regarded Moulin-à-Vent, this vintage mirrors the elegance and layered character of one of Beaujolais’ most celebrated crus, where cherry and violet meet an earthy undertone. It’s also one of Winemaker Ryan Schmaltz’s favorites to enjoy throughout the summer and fall.
