Wine Tasting – George DuBoeuf Beaujolais

Name: Georges DuBoeuf Beaujolais Nouveau
Variety: 100% Gamay
Region: Beaujolais, France
Country: France
Year: 2013
Price: $14.00 à $3.95

Winery Review: Balanced and lightly creamy, offering pretty flavors of plum sauce and raspberry coulis threaded with hints of ground spice. Elegant, with floral finish. Drink now.

My Review: We tried this wine a while ago. Having this wine now gave me an idea of how quickly—and drastically—this particular wine ages. You can check out my other review of this wine here. Back then, this wine seemed like a strawberry-banana smoothie; young and bouncing around my palate. NOW, though, I detect more spice and dark fruit. The palate gave way to raspberries and dark plums mixed with the heat of a dash of cinnamon. On the finish I tasted white pepper and spice. Interesting indeed.

With food?: I tasted this wine without food.
