Tasting - Georges Duboeuf Nouveau

Name: Georges Duboeuf Nouveau
Region/Country: Beaujolais, France
Year: 2015
Price: $12-- Sale $5.95

Winery Review: George Duboeuf is THE king of Beaujolais. His wines are full of pop, charm, and great flavor and his Beaujolais Nouveau is no exception. A cornucopia of expressive fruit wrapped in an almost-bubblegum-like frame; it is the flagship Nouveau. 

My Review: This red wine was very oaky. Blackberries were detected on the nose but the oakiness took over the rest of the flavors. It was very tannic and it left a strange, dry texture on my tongue. I tasted this red wine on its own with no food. I would give this an 83.
