It’s Beaujolais Nouveau week ….

Publié le 18 April 2025 par su_laetis

Tasting Beaujolais Nouveau and possibly other new wines on the 3rd Thursday in November has become an institution. So this year, on 21 November, we'll be indulging our taste buds with these beverages. What qualities will we find this year? A fruity nose, a tangy mouthfeel and a ruby red colour? Whatever the case, Beaujolais delights many epicureans at this time of year.

How to enjoy Beaujolais?

To enjoy Beaujolais, you have a choice: take advantage of our bars to discover it in good company, or choose a restaurant or brasserie that suggests pairing this early harvest wine with traditional dishes.

Last but not least, you can buy good vintages from our wine merchants, who will advise you according to your preferences. They themselves are planning to organise themed evenings.

And to accompany these wines with their strong character, don't hesitate to make our typical Corrèze dish: mique and petit salé!
