Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais-Villages
Document Actions
Georges Duboeuf is the king of Beaujolais for a reason.
His ability to spot a good wine and his marketing genius are
the subjects of many an article. Most importantly, though, his
wines are good and inexpensive.
Beaujolais-Villages is a simple, fruity red wine from the Beaujolais region of France, produced from the Gamay grape. Nicely drinkable, easy to pair with pretty much anything (I had it with pizza), this is a fun wine that proves not every wine coming from France is for the snooty. Although Beaujolais-Villages works at room temperature, it is traditionally served cooler than other reds, chilled to fifty-two degrees Fahrenheit. Its aroma is of ripe berries with a hint of something else, something floral (violet?).
I picked up a bottle from a local wine store for something like $8 and I have seen bottles online for as little as $6.
