Beaujolais Nouveau

Well, on the downside, we're stuck in France for Thanksgiving. On the bright side, we're here for one of the first times ever for the Beaujolais Nouveau. 

Beaujolais Nouveau is a red wine from Beaujolais region. It's called a vin de primeur, meaning it is fermented for only a few weeks. It's sold starting the third Thursday of November, which explains why we're usually not here for it. As it's a primeur or vin de table (table wine), it's meant to be drunk immediately, and not stored in your wine cellar for years.


Frédéric made us a charcuterie board to go with our wine tasting.
