Sun-kissed, fresh and fruity, just the way you like your Beaujolais. This is not Nouveau. This is serious Beaujolais from Chenas, possibly the best dirt in the region. Silver, 2008 Finger Lakes International Wine Competition.

Light, blood-red in the glass, red currant, raspberry, a garrigue-like medley of fresh herbs, and exotic spices mark a few of the high points in the aria this wine sings as it moves down the tongue.
