Louis Jadot Beaujolais-Villages


The wine, made from gamay grapes has all the fun associated with this particular appelation controlee, with enough undertones of mineral to give it balance. It has fresh grape, grass and berry flavors with a hint of granite. Typically, my fear of lighter wines at good prices is an astringent aftertaste but this had none.

This is a wonderful wine to drink with light lunch or dinner and for about $10, a not-too-serious wine you can enjoy more than once.
