Beaujolais Nouveau making a huge comeback

Each year, on the third Thursday of November, the world rejoices at the release of Chateau De Pizay’s highly anticipated Beaujolais Nouveau wines. Bottled just a few weeks after the harvest, the wines are considered to be a preview of the vintage to come, as well as a celebration of the bounty of the Beaujolais harvest. Per French law and tradition, Chateau De Pizay 2022 Beaujolais Nouveau, will be available worldwide Thursday, Nov. 17, 2022

The 2022 Beaujolais Nouveau displays a light garnet colour with violet reflections. It is an immediate delight on the nose, with aromas of small red fruits (red currant and cranberry.) Refreshing, fruity, and supple on the palate, this vintage is a perfect expression of Nouveau. Beaujolais-Villages Nouveau features a deep garnet colour and a typical Nouveau profile, fresh and enticing, with aromas of small red and black fruits (strawberries, black currants.) Perfectly balanced, the wine is round and delicious on the palate, with a long finish that highlights the fruit.

This year we have had a large interest in Beaujolais Nouveau more than any other year, it’s making a massive resurgence with previous vintages showing really well.
