Beaujolais Nouveau Gamay
Beaujolais, Burgundy, France
Good, simple juice. An excellent example of how Nouveau isn't just supermarket marketing scam trash-- it can also be well made, and enjoyable.

Another Beaujolais Nouveau 2016. Good with strong citrus notes. Had it with grilled grouper at home. Liked George DuBouef better.

Tastes like a mediocre barrel sample. But then again what was I expecting right?

Very easy drinking, touch of sweetness, touch of acid up front, cherry notes. And it really does go well with mac and cheese.

Nov 17th, 2016Dark purple, pinkish robe. Fruity aromas, tannic flavor with cranberry and banana. Low acid. Quick finish.

Mar 14th, 2016Colors or dark purple with a pink-tinted robe. Strong, fresh fruit aromas of cherry, cranberry, banana, and strawberry mixed with vanilla and candy. Lots of tannins come forward in the flavor, with low acidity, yet the berries and banana and tart cherry pull through nicely. Light in body, with a quick finish. Overall not a lot of structure, but pleasant.
