Expert Reviews

87 Points | International Wine Cellar , February 2011

Vivid ruby.  Wild strawberry and raspberry aromas show good freshness and energy.  Tangy red fruits and blood orange on the palate, with a seamless, silky texture and good clarity.  Becomes sweeter with aeration, putting on weight as well.  Juicy, almost jammy on the finish, which features a suggestion of white pepper.

About Beaujolais

Made from the Gamay grape, the red wines of Beaujolais are mostly exuberantly fruity and brisk wines that are often served lightly chilled for added refreshment. 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.
