Vintage Cellar Tasting - Georges Duboeuf

Name: Georges Duboeuf
Variety: Gamay
Region: Beaujolais Nouveau
Country: France
Year: 2012
Price: $3.95
Shop Review: Bright and tangy, offering a classic banana note on the nose, with flavors of raspberry, wild strawberry and light spice.  Modest finish.
Review: This wine was had a very fruity smell right off the bat, with definite strawberry smell as well as other distinct berries and a definite banana aroma in the back of the nose.  A nice sweet taste, not overpoweringly so though.  Left a nice aftertaste on the back of my tongue, perhaps of blackberries.  This is obviously the cheapest of the wines in this tasting, so obviously, it was the wine I chose to purchase.  I also thought it was pretty good.
Food?  No, no food.
