Beaujolais Nouveau

Did you know that the third Thursday of November is a special day in the wine world? Keep your eye on the calendar because that's the day we get a new year of Beaujolais Nouveau!

Beaujolais Nouveau is wine right out of the vineyard made from grapes harvested this fall. It's got just picked fruitiness, a simple, uncomplicated, inexpensive and just plain fun wine to drink. And the ultimate 'drink now' wine.

Put a little chill on it when serving to bring out the grapey taste of this light bodied red wine you can enjoy with lots of foods and snacks. Even folks who don't normally drink wine will like this one. which makes it a good choice for that big Thanksgiving dinner you may be planning.

Remember . . . third Thursday of November is Beaujolais Nouveau day . . . so get ready to enjoy that 'just picked' taste.

Just check your favorite retailer.

Pop the cork.
