Next Thursday November 15th marks the arrival of this years' Beaujolais Nouveau and the 30th Anniversary vintage. Georges Duboeuf is celebrating with a special website and a free smartphone app available at the website link. The wine will be $6.99 with your Premier Card.

I should also mention that I was in Beaujolais this past Spring, and met with a fantastic cooperative called that makes many different Beaujolais wines. You may be familiar with the Chateau du Souzy Beaujolais-Villages or the Domaine de la Passion Cru Beaujolais from Moulin-a-Vent. Those are just two of the may labels they represent. Anyway, to make a long story short we'll have their Nouveau as well!
