Beaujolais Nouveau is a young wine harvested in fall and sold before spring. It is sold and consumed within six weeks of the harvest. A wine of the Gamay variety, the only purple-coloured variety of grapes allowed to be used in Beaujolais Nouveau, this wine is as about close to white wine as a red wine can get. Served chilled it makes for a festive wine that is meant to be gulped down rather than sipped and enjoyed by all in high spirits.
