_Old has‘ now spread to almost 200.
‘countries around the world (most of

‘them places where the house wine is likcly to be some-
thing even riskier than new Beaujolais), which have rec-
ognized a good excuse for a party: when they see one.
Beaujolais is the ultimate “pop” wine, as callow and
frivolous as first love; those destined to love red wine
almost invariably lose their cenological virginity to a

WINE SPOTS

It's made by a process officially
known us “carbonic maceration”,
which means “forget the press, stuff it
all ina vat, slap the lid on and see
what develops”, an ancient inethod of
vinification still widely used in penal
institutions. According to the stats,
the 1995 vintage should be excellent,
offering bigger, even fruitier wines
with good deep color.

Beaujolais is meant to be con-
surned within two or three years so

feel free to act like Steve Martin in The Jerk, ordering
“something fresh instead of this old stuff.”
If you must sample the tres nouveau-estick to rep-
utable firms like Georges Duboeuf and Bouchard Aine. -
My experience with unfamiliar labels that only
appear during the November Nouveau has been unre-

warding to say the least.

They appear to be involved in
more than simply tuming out a dis-
tilled spirit. "Tis the very substance
of life to the Istay folk.

put it best.
