Variety: Beaujlais Nouveau
Region: Beaujolais 
Country: France

Shop/wine critic/winery review:
Balanced and lightly creamy, offering pretty flavors of plum sauce and raspberry coulis threaded with hints of ground spice. Elegant, with a floral finish.
Your Review: 
Again, additional fruits are noted. It was interesting that this wine is not aged, so it affects the flavor.  Not necessarily to my liking, but I guess this is a wine for the holiday season with the intention that it is new and different.  I like that.  
I did not pair this with food.
