| Description: | The "Nouveau" young wines of the Beaujolais is fantastically fresh and uncomplicated red wine enjoyment. The regionally typical process of carbonic acid maceration brings very fruity aromas into the wines, which can be reminiscent of bananas and fruit drops. At the same time, the wines are very low in tannins, making them the perfect choice for a fun, uncomplicated glass. At the Domaine des Nugues Beaujolais Villages Nouveau, only grapes from the 38 northern local appellations of the Beaujolais are used. In these locations, the wine gets a little more depth and variety of aromas. The fully ripe and hand-picked grapes come from plots that are processed according to the principle of sustainable cultivation. In the medium ruby red glass, this Beaujolais Villages Nouveau has a fragrant bouquet of strawberry confit, juicy blueberries, red cherries and currants with overtones of violets and stone fruit. Incredibly juicy and lean on the palate, with juicy fruit of blueberries, red cherries, strawberries and vineyard peaches as well as floral accents. Balanced, uncomplicated drinking pleasure with at the same time more seriousness than with simpler representatives of its guild. Enjoyed in a timely manner, this wine offers the greatest pleasure.
