Score : 89 by MoIppai (22/11/2009)

I hadn't planned on rushing out and buying a bottle of this years Beaujolais Nouveau but this was a gift from my boss (we all got a couple of bottles of Beaujolais Nouveau this year - I wasn't singled out especially...), so turns out I didn't have to.

It's a gorgeous violet, purple colour with a fresh lively, fruity smell.

There was a hint of Muscat Bailey A (a grape often found in Japanese wine, which I'm not a big fan of), but it wasn't too bold so it didn't spoil my enjoyment of the wine.

It's very young (obviously!) and fresh and fruity.
A very drinkable, enjoyable table wine.

Had a taste of the George Duboeuf. Really did not like!
Lots of Banana and some finger nail polish.
