Wine Tasting: Manoir du Carra

Name: Manoir du Carra Beaujolais Nouveau Gamay
Variety: Gamay
Region: Beaujolais
Country: France
Year: 2014
Price: Regular $12 on sale $4.95

Winery ReviewA pretty, floral wine, with a rose petal notes underscoring the rich pomegranate and sweet plum flavors. The fresh acidity is balanced, and a light spice note lingers on the finish.

My Review: A hint of oak on the nose but none on the taste. Also smelled peppery and spicy and maybe a little like licorice. Smooth on the palate, tasted like darker berries like plum or blackberries. 

I did not have this wine with food.
