About the Wine: Beaujolais is a French varietal best known for its role in the making of Beaujolais Nouveau, a very light and fruity wine made from grapes picked early in the season. The Villages variation is picked later in the season and yields a darker, heavier wine.
About THIS Wine: The center is garnet with a pink rim, reminiscent of Pinot Noir. The nose is thick and musky with notes of red fruit. Tannins dominate the palate and finish, though cherry and licorice notes are present.
Drinking This Wine: Definitely a food wine. Enjoy with cheese and crackers or chocolate.
Overall Impression: This is definitely a wine for traditionalists with an appreciation for the classics. As such it is reasonable for the price.
