Tasting- "Georges DuBoeuf Beaujolais Nouveau"




Georges DuBoeuf
Beaujolais Nouveau
$14 → $3.95
France

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

My review: This wine had raspberry and plum notes and a spoiled milk quality. I had paired this exact wine with my Thanksgiving dinner and enjoyed it when it was fresh but tasting it in April left much to be desired. Drinking it this time around just tasted stale and it was definitely past its prime. I absolutely understand why the description added "Drink now." I think it is appropriately priced at $3.95 and picked a bottle up for cooking wine but would pass on the bottle for sipping.

This wine was tasted without food.
