The holiday season has arrived with the Beaujolais Nouveau.  Released the 3rd Thursday of November every year, this wine is simple.  That doesn't mean bad - just simple.  Fruit, fruit and more fruit.  But, it is meant to be drunk young, so it is as expected.  Interesting that we have not really liked the Duboeuf and preferred Drouhin.  This year, I preferred the Duboeuf.  Larry and still still liked the Drouhin more, but agreed that the gap has een closed.  Also interesting, we tried the 2009 Duoeuf (which should have been gone by now) and it was surprisingly good.  Can't believe it lasted a year and it was probably better now than when released.  I guess until you open the bottle, you never know what you are gonna get.

Have a great Thanksgiving!!!
