Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais Villages

Winemkaer Notes:
This Beaujolais-Villages displays a deep, luminous cherry color, red with bluish tints. The bouquet offers ripe red fruit character, suggesting strawberry and black currant, with a touch of cinnamon.  Velvet-like in the mouth, with soft tannins, it is well-balanced and complete. A wine which lends itself to all occasions, from the aperitif to the cheese board.

Beaujolais-Villages takes its name from a number of wine-producing villages located in the area of Beaujolais which have long been identified for the superior quality of their wine. In this instance “superior” refers to greater complexity in bouquet, higher concentration and deeper flavor. Its distinctive character sets a kind of middle ground for Beaujolais with its unique, casual charm and the prestigious top ten Cru wines to the north.

Tasting Notes:

This is a bright, simple red wine with a sharpness that screams for fatty or acidic food. A great match for simple, All-American fare such as cheeseburgers, pizza, tacos or a Philly cheese steak.
