Monday, November 12, 2012 - Decided to open this since we've hit the 1 year anniversary of Beaujolais Nouveau Festival! Its definitely mellowed since last year. In the glass: Super dark magenta, pink edge, short legs. On the nose: Much less bubblegum and candycane as compared to last year showing tart raspberry, tiny bit of banana, hint of spice. In the mouth: Medium mouth feel, tart raspberries on the tongue, good bit of dry tannic grip, light finish. If this is any indication, the 2011 vintage for Georges Dubeouf will be a great year! I was surprised that this is still as good as it is for a 3 week old bottling! Look forward to tasting the real thing on Beauj fest night. If you have it, drink it up it won't get better.
