Not your father's Beaujolais
10/25/2012

Wow! This is superb. Darker than the typical Pinot Noir, this is earthy and full of fruit with excellent tannic structure. Would be excellent with roasted chicken/turkey or grilled salmon or lamb, or even pork. Extremely flexible food wine. Great stuff!
Classic 2010; classic Beaujolais

Ripe fruit, but crisp, mouth-watering acids; nice crushed stone undercurrent. Invigorating to drink.

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.
