Beaujolais Nouveau 2014

The Beaujolais Nouveau has arrived! Has it been another year already? For the uninitiated, the festival of Beaujolais Nouveau is a chance to celebrate the end of the year and offers the first chance to taste this year's vintage. Celebrated across France, in bars, restaurants, and markets alike, the Beaujolais Nouveau proves itself to be a pleasant evening of wine tasting to enjoy amongst friends. The festival also celebrates the culmination of the previous year’s hard work in the vineyards of the heart of the Rhône-Alpes region in east-central France. The festivities take place on Thursday November 20th and we have put together the top five places to sample the Beaujolais Nouveau in Nice for your convenience.

With its own refinery cellar, the bistro boasts a selection of fantastic unknown wines, wines that they think should be shouted about from the roof tops!
