Tasting-George Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau


Name:  George Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau
Variety:  Gamay
Region:  Beaujolais
Country:  France
Year:  2011
Price:  $12 (sale: $3.95)
Review:  "A wine showing good balance between taut structure and forward fruit. Red cherries dominate this easygoing light and fruity wine." - Joseph Drouhin, 85
My Review:  This wine had a light, grape/berry smell and had a pretty purplish pink color.  It tasted semi-dry with nice berry flavors, and a little bit of petrol.  Pretty much what I think of as a classic red wine taste.  Good but nothing striking about it. 

I tried this wine without food.
