It's Beaujolais Nouveau Time!
It will now be officially the third Thursday in November and we will have Beaujolais Nouveau in the shop... while supplies last. Last year we sold out within 2 days!
Beaujolais Nouveau is a light, French red wine, purple-pink in color. It is meant for immediate drinking, not to be kept for maturation like some other wines. "Beaujolais Day" is a day of celebration around the world. In Las Vegas, the Paris' Eiffel Tower has been lit up in red to celebrate the day, and cases of wine have been flown in by helicopter for faster delivery. Tokyo even celebrates with a big "Beaujolais Bath" as seen in the pictures at the end of this newsletter. Too cool.
The Nouveau is lightweight, even by Beaujolais standards, and is typically served slightly chilled. The wine has very little tannin and can be dominated by fruity flavors. It's a great bottle to serve with Thanksgiving dinner as a lighter alternative to heavier wines.
Join us Thursday, November 18th for Vinatero's own Beaujolais Day Celebration!

We're tasting the wine at the bar and also offering it by the glass. Super cool French-themed music will be played. Don't miss this annual celebration. For more information about this delightful wine:
Next week is Thanksgiving and that means that the holidays are upon us. We will be OPEN on Thanksgiving Day 10am - 3pm for all your last minute wine, champagne, beer, & chocolate needs! We look forward to celebrating the holidays with you, our dear extended family!
Santé!
