As every year, the third Thursday of November marks the release of Beaujolais Nouveau. And, as always, Beaujolais Nouveau will display the very first bottles with the 2009 vintage label.
This young wine is made from the gamay grapes in the southern part of Burgundy. The grapes are fermented quickly, which results in a light, fruity, festive and inexpensive wine. It usually marks the end of the harvest, and was originally created to use the excess grapes that were not used for other wines.
Beaujolais Nouveau will be available for retail on Thursday, November 19th.
