90 Points | International Wine Cellar , February 2011

Vivid ruby.  Seductive, assertively perfumed scents of wild red berries, cherry, anise and fresh bay, with a pronounced floral quality.  Lithe and precise on the palate, offering gently sweet strawberry and raspberry flavors and a touch of bitter pomegranate.  The clean, focused finish leaves sexy red fruit and floral notes behind.  I like this wine’s balance.

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.
