Beaujolais Nouveau Night – Winter really is here now
A good turn out in Le Praz as always down the Cave de Lys and Drop Inn as Beaujolais night marks the real start to Winter and serious amounts of snow forecast for this weekend.
Thank to Ralph at The Free Ride Republic for the pics.
Beaujolais Nouveau is a red wine made from Gamay grapes produced in the Beaujolais region of France. It is the most popular vin de primeur, fermented for just a few weeks before being released for sale on the third Thursday of November. This “Beaujolais Nouveau Day” used to see heavy marketing, with races to get the first bottles to different markets around the globe.
The current release practice is to ship the wine ahead of the third Thursday of November, and release it to the local markets at 12:01 a.m. local time.
