Vintage Wine Cellar (Amanda): "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 Beaujolais Nouveau was a very intriguing wine, probably because I had never tasted one before. This wine had a very rich aroma of plum and raspberry that made the wine a little intimidating before you drank it. The Nouveau had was very creamy and smooth but incredibly DRY, LIKE SUPER DRY. Heavy tannins you could feel within this wine. It tasted a little spicy with a decent finish that sat on the palate for a few seconds after swallowing. Overall a wine that was not too shabby.
