2011 Georges Duboeuf French - Beaujolais "Chiroubles Flower"![]() Winery: Georges Duboeuf Vintage: 2011 Wine Name/Vineyard: "Chiroubles Flower" Wine Category: French - Beaujolais Grape blend: 100% Gamay Region: Beaujolais State or country: France Price: $14 Cases produced: unknown KWG Score: 88 (based on 1 review) Ken's Wine Rating: Not Reviewed Review date: August 3, 2012 Wine Review: This was my favorite of the 2011 Georges Duboeuf flower level wines. It is dark ruby colored and opens with a mild strawberry and blueberry bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, nicely balanced, juicy and friendly. The flavor profile is a gentle boysenberry jam with hints of blueberry and black raspberry in the background. This wine will be a real crowd pleaser, a solid value, and would be a perfect party or wedding red. I would pair this very versatile Gamay with a juicy Angus burger or prime rib. Enjoy – Ken Winemaker Notes: Garnet color. This superb Chiroubles is a very good follow-up to 2010 and 2009, with hints of red and exotic fruits. It is fruity, fresh, lively on the palate and has a voluptuous finish. Organic status: not organic Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Georges Duboeuf 2011 Chiroubles Flower.
