Nouveau gets better every year as it is now produced as a badge of honour and treated seriously be the biggest players: KARIM VIONNET, DIDIER DESVIGNES, LAPALU, FOILLARD, DOMAINE DE LA PLAIGNE and DUFAITRE. Our 6-Pack is €145 DELIVERED and we do not have many - once they're gone, they're gone!
Legally you cannot deliver it until the 3rd Thursday of November, so we are pre-selling this week to make sure you can get it next week on Nouveau Thursday - the ultimate Thirsty Thursday!
WHAT IS NOUVEAU? originally conceived as a party for vineyard workers, a small, very early release (just upon conclusion of the fermentation) of super young and juicy Gamay to drink - a piss up. George Debouef, the biggest producer in the region grabbed the concept and marketed the hell out of it, until people were bathing in it and getting it airfreighted from France so they could drink it on Nouveau Day.
WHY THE BAD REPUTATION? Some people just need more fun in their lives. Nouveau is a no strings attached wine - it’s made for fun drinking, it's not serious, it's approachable, gluggy fare. Get the full spiel HERE.
