Beaujolais, France
Regular Price: $14
Sale Price: $3.95
Tasting Notes from Vintage Cellar: Balanced and lightly creamy, offering pretty flavors of plum sauce and raspberry coulis threaded with hints of ground spice. Elegant, with a floral finish.
Following the rosé tasting, this red tasted very full bodied and smooth. This was actually my favorite one of all the ones we tasted and I picked up a bottle of this one for myself as well. I agree with the tasting notes in that it was balanced with floral flavors, but it was not extremely sweet which made it very appealing to me. The gentleman pouring the wine informed us that this wine is actually from Burgundy, but a specific part of Burgundy which is what gives it the name "Beaujolais". I had not previously tasted a wine from Burgundy but had been meaning to. Since I very much enjoyed this wine I cannot wait to try more from this region of France!
