Tasting Beaujolais Villages Nouveau Honoré Lavigne

Yesterday was the release day of Beaujolais wines. I grabbed one with me at my way home: The Beaujolais was Villages Nouveau Honoré Lavigne. The last two yers have been quite dissapointments because Alko´s (goverment store monopoly) had selected Beaujolais that where quite yeasti.

This time selection has been better. Atleast on this label. The taste was light as
Beaujolais usually is but it reminded me from Chianti with I tasted few years ago. Beaujolais has clear acids and quite fruity taste. This cuold be nice on hot day because it is supposed to serve chilled 12-14 degrees. The weather in Finland is unfortunately barely on plus degrees and it is raining. I fooled myself with fresh baguette, grilled sweet pepper, melted haloumi and olive oil. I have to say that it was best side dish with wine for long time.

I say this
Beaujolais is worth of tasting. Even my wife, who has quite accurate taste and skeptical opinion about beaujolais, had a glass of this.
