Expert Reviews

92 Points | International Wine Cellar , February 2011

Vivid red.  Intensely aromatic nose offers spicy red and dark berry and floral aromas with exotic notes of cinnamon and allspice.  Very fresh and precise on the palate, displaying lively, densely packed dark berry character and a note of cherry pit on the back half.  Finishes pure and incisive, with echoing spice and floral notes.

There is also a small amount of white Beaujolais, made from Chardonnay, but little of this is exported to the U.S. Today, the overwhelming majority of Beaujolais production is controlled by negociants, of whom Georges Duboeuf is the undisputed king.
