Discussion of Beaujolais Nouveau
I absolutely adore Beaujolais, it’s my favorite red wine. Wine Library TV discusses the new Beaujolais from Georges Dubouef and 3 other wines in this robust 21 minute review.
Get Cork’d!
Moving up in the del.icio.us ranks is a little site called Cork’d. The concept? “Review, Cellar, and Share Wine”. Internet savvy dipsomaniacs rejoice! Now you have a place to chat about your maddening obsession with fermented grape juice of various ages, with all the charms that only a Web 2.0 named site could provide.
They’ve got a 100 point rating system for wines, and a handy price scale of 1-4 dollar signs to indicate general cost of wines.
They seem to have dozens upon dozens of different wines, but they’re lacking the one that really pops my cork: 2004 Georges Dubeuf Beaujolais Villages.
Had I the means to maintain a cellar, I’d probably be all over this site. Just like any other lifehack/organizer tool, this one’s looking pretty good at what it’s all about. Even though I’m not ready to make an account and start going all ga-ga over my perfectly preserved, carefully selected wines, I’ll definitely use this site as a reference for buying bottles of special occasion wines. Always handy to know if that bottle with the pretty label in the store is delicious or junk.
