Beaujolais is a great year-round wine. It’s excellent with a wide variety of dishes, from seafood to outdoor grilling to hearty stews. And, of course, for one day in November, Beaujolais Nouveau is a great excuse for a harvest party. So, like Meryl Streep, it can be whatever you want it to be, without ever losing its own character. But we especially associate Beaujolais with fall, maybe because its life and vibrancy remind us of the changing colors of leaves and beautiful weather.
