| 2009 Georges Duboeuf French - Beaujolais "Domaines des Quartre Vents Fleurie" Winery: Georges Duboeuf Vintage: 2009 Wine Name/Vineyard: "Domaines des Quartre Vents Fleurie" Wine Category: French - Beaujolais Grape blend: 100% Gamay Region: Beaujolais State or country: France Price: $17 Cases produced: 2,800 KWG Score: 90 (based on 2 reviews) Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good+ (90) Review date: August 5, 2010 Wine Review: This was my second favorite wine at a recent tasting of the new 2009 Beaujolais offerings from Georges Duboeuf. It is bright ruby colored and opens with a mild oak and blueberry bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, well balanced, and very smooth. The flavor profile is a tasty mild black raspberry with a hint of strawberry and a dash of black pepper. The finish is dry and its building fine tannins are sticky and linger for a while. I would pair this very well made and affordable gem with pork tenderloin. Enjoy – Ken Winemaker Notes: This Fleurie has a deep garnet color and offers a complex, intense nose, with a delightful harmony and balance between floral (iris, peony) and red and dark berry aromas. Smooth and clean on the palate, with an impression of sweetness and mellow, racy tannins. Good length on the finish. Delicious: a promise of pleasure! Organic status: not organic Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Georges Duboeuf 2009 Domaines des Quartre Vents Fleurie.
