Louis Jadot Beaujolais Villages (France 2006)

Category: Gamay — Mike @ 7:20 am

	This wine is a Gamay Noir from the Beaujolais region in east central France. Beaujolais is a sub-region of the larger Burgandy region in France, and is known for producing fruit forward and light wines. Nearly all of the wine produced in the Beaujolais region is of the Gamay grape variety. This wine is very common in the US and can be found at almost any store.
	$8 from Trader Joes.

Strawberry bouquet. Light and dry with moderate tannins. Easy to drink with a very short finish. Not complex, simple. This wine is like that song you hear and enjoy right away. After a while though it gets a little boring, because it’s not layered with intricacies that take multiple listens to hear. It still is nice to play once in a while though because it does have a good rhythm.
