Winery review: George Duboeuf is THE king of Beaujolais. His wines are full of pop, charm and great flavor and his Beaujolais Nouveau is no exception. A cornucopia of expressive fruit wrapped in an almost-bubblegum-like frame; it is the flagship Nouveau.
My review: The nose on this wine was poor. It smelled rotten, as if the grapes had gone bad before fermentation. With that though, the taste of the wine was surprising. It tasted like a sweet red currant at the beginning but finished with a very dry and acidic taste. The finish was weak but the wine offered enough variety to be enjoyable.
This was tasted without food
