DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Georges Duboeuf, who died in 2020, was known as the King of Beaujolais. His house was founded in 1964 in Romanèche-Thorins, in the heart of the Moulin-à-Vent appellation, and it remains known for its Nouveau and the celebrations around it.
Beaujolais Nouveau is made from Gamay, using carbonic maceration: whole bunches ferment without crushing, which keeps tannins low and pushes the fresh fruit forward. The wine is released on the third Thursday of November, just weeks after harvest. Expect a light, juicy red with bright berry fruit. Fun and fresh, and meant for drinking now.
Serve it slightly chilled, about 55°F, in an all-purpose wine glass. Twenty minutes in the fridge is about right. It is a classic choice for Thanksgiving, and goes well with roast turkey, charcuterie, roast chicken, burgers and pizza. Drink it within a few months of release, while it is at its freshest.
Bottle size: 750ml
