Beaujolais Nouveau is coming on Nov. 20th!

🍇 What Is Beaujolais Nouveau?

Beaujolais Nouveau is a young, vibrant red wine made from Gamay grapes grown in the Beaujolais region of France, just north of Lyon. What makes it special is its freshness — it’s harvested, fermented, bottled, and released all within just a few weeks.

Every year, on the third Thursday of November, wine lovers around the world gather to celebrate the official release of the new vintage. The day marks not just the arrival of the wine, but also a joyful French tradition — a moment to toast the end of the harvest season and share the first taste of the year’s production.

Light, fruity, and easy to drink, Beaujolais Nouveau is often described as a “wine of celebration.” It captures the spirit of conviviality, friendship, and the simple pleasure of gathering together — which is exactly what makes the annual Beaujolais Nouveau event so beloved worldwide.
