Tasting- "Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau 2012"

Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau 2012

  • Variety: 100% Gamay
  • Region: Burgundy
  • Country: France
  • Year: 2012
  • Price: $3.95
  • Shop review:
    • "Bright and tangy, offering a classic banana note on the nose, with flavors of raspberry, wild strawberry and light spice.  Modest finish."
  • My review:
    • This wine smelled like raspberry jam to me, but the flavor I found when I tasted it was more like strawberry banana.  It was very fruity, almost to the point of tasting like juice.  I can see how it would be very appealing to someone who was just beginning to get into red wine, as I am.
  • I did not have this wine with food.
