Beaujolais Nouveau

November 19, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm CET

€10,00
Beaujolais Moulin

Beaujolais Nouveau will be released on Thursday 19th as planned, and no stupid virus is going to stop us tasting it!

Of course the REAL Beaujolais wines are much more interesting – with their unique fermentation method, mouth-watering flavours and extraordinary geographical location. So buy yourself a bottle of Nouveau, plus one of delicious, quality Beaujolais*, and log in so that we can learn all about this fascinating region and its unique wines. For the full experience, pick up an example of its close neighbour Burgundy Pinot Noir as well, so that we can compare and contrast. I will put suggestions in the comments. Half-bottles are often available too, of course.

*The quality Beaujolais are: Brouilly, Côtes de Brouilly, Morgon, Chenas, Juliénas, Fleurie, Régnié, Moulin à Vent, Chiroubles and St Amour.

As we taste we will look at the maps, diagrams and photos that help unlock the secrets of this gastronomically blessed but tragically under-rated wine region. I will also post food-pairing ideas.

Santé, Sean

With years of experience living in viticultural regions, importing and exporting wine, and running bars and wine shops, Sean has a lifetime of information, opinion and stories to share. Sean has been hosting wine tasting events for 15 years, which are beloved by the many regular participants. They focus on wine, beer and Cognac tastings, held around a theme such as country of origin, food pairing or finding more esoteric links with wine; for example mythology, art or veganism. Check out the tasting notes from the previous tasting for this region. Learn the English of Wine using fun exercises, games and quizzes.

  1. Speaking as somebody who has been involved with wine and wine people for three decades, I never cease to be amazed as the depth of Sean’s knowledge, and how he manages to add interesting insights into every theme.
