Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais-Villages Equals Stud
As part of my duds and studs when it comes to selecting and critiquing some inexpensive wines, my latest find is Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais-Villages.

Now I'm not new to this wine label, but it is often in the upper range of my cheap wine price range, usually about $8 to $7 (US), and when there are so many bottles at a few dollars less than this to choose from, I often pass on old George.

But, I lucked out this past week and found this wonderful Beaujolais on sale for $6.99 (US). Not only did I have to buy it, I had to stock up a little. Even at a few dollars more, I think this wine is worth it. And, come on. Who doesn't like Beaujolais?

The review (and image of the label) I found on Ergo-sum agrees with me:

Beaujolais-Villages is a simple, fruity red wine from the Beaujolais region of France, produced from the Gamay grape. Nicely drinkable, easy to pair with pretty much anything (I had it with pizza), this is a fun wine that proves not every wine coming from France is for the snooty. Although Beaujolais-Villages works at room temperature, it is traditionally served cooler than other reds, chilled to fifty-two degrees Fahrenheit. Its aroma is of ripe berries with a hint of something else, something floral (violet?).
