Tasting - Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau

Name: Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau
Variety: 100% Gamay
Region: Beaujolais
Country: France
Year: 2012
Price: $3.95 
Tasting Date: January 31, 2013
Location: Vintage Cellar
Food Pairing: None 

Winery Review: Bright and tangy, offering a classic banana note on the nose, with flavors of raspberry, wild strawberry and light spice. Modest finish.

My Thoughts: The aroma is a very strong banana with hints of blackberry or raspberry. The flavor is an equally strong banana at the front, then a spicy bitter finish. I liked it better than most reds. The biter finish lingered more than I would like.
