Tasting - Georges Duboeuf Beajolais Nouveau 2013



NameGeorges Duboeuf Beajolais Nouveau
Variety: Gamay
Region: Beaujolais
Country: France
Year: 2013
Price: $15 (Reduced to $7.95)

Winery Review: An aromatic red, with floral and white peach notes accenting the black raspberry and plum flavors. This is open-knit and fresh, offering light tannins on the finish.


My Review: Very colorful bottle and an equally colorful nose to it. There was a strong strawberry-banana and fruity nose to the wine. However, after tasting the wine, I was pretty taken aback by the lack of an overwhelming fruity flavor. There was some plum flavor, but not as fruity as the nose to the wine and eventually there was a light tannic finish to the wine. Overall a pretty unique wine, but I wasn't a huge fan of it.

I did not have this wine with food.
