Every couple of months one of the local wine/liquor shops has a big clearance sale – I tend to stock up when they do. There's never anything “wrong” with the wine, they usually are making room for new vintages or are just getting rid of bottles that haven't moved much. Part of the most recent sale was that every BN was cut to $4.99. I grabbed three different bottles, all regularly priced $11. I'll be cracking open the other two bottles in the next few days.This has that typical funky berry smell that Beaujolais normally has.
Mild all around – acidic, but not sharply so – and just easily drinkable. Raspberry and cherry with some earthy notes.
Chocolate, earth, and raspberry on the finish.
BN is meant to be an easy quaff and this does the job – for $5 I'm not about to complain. Solid for what it is, but if you're not a fan, you won't be sold.
