2007 Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau

Trader Joe's was pushing it like candy after Halloween. Although it tastes like a watery cotton candy, there seems to be something redeeming about it, but I can't quite figure out what that is.

An inky blackish-purple Christmas treat of a wine with candied fruit flavors.

Fruity, fizzy, and delicious summer wine. Adamatus is right, it is a little too easy to polish off the whole bottle without thinking.

Significant variation from bottle to bottle makes this an unpredictable wine, but it is still one of the better under-$10 wines out there.
