Red Wine advice

[Innkeeper]

Hi Polly, and welcome. In this case it is a "know" and not a "think." Beaujolais Nouveau as stated comes out in November of the vintage year (the '07 came out in Nov '07). It is always made to be consumed very quickly after release and is kind of a novelty. You will see '07s in the bargain bins of wine stores now because it is already fading.

Beaujolais Villages is made the same way most other wines are made and released the following year. It is recommended for novices because it is always light and very fruity. Easy to drink.

What makes a wine good is how it tastes to you.
