Tasting- Manoir du Carra Beaujolais Nouveau Gamay

Name: Manoir du Carra Beaujolais Nouveau Gamay
Region/Country: Beaujolais, France
Year: 2014
Price: $12-- Sale $4.95

Winery Review: A pretty, floral wine, with a rose petal notes underscoring the rich pomegranate and sweet plum flavors. The fresh acidity is balanced, and a light spice note lingers on the finish.

My Review: I normally dislike all red wines, but I would choose to drink this wine for enjoyment. I particularly dislike red wines for its over powering bitter taste, but I thought this wine had the perfect balance between bitter and tangy. The two flavors balanced each other out and left my mouth refreshed and wanting more. The after taste gave off hints of spice and a light sweet fruit. I did not pair this wine with food.
