Tasting - Georges DuBoeuf Beaujolais Nouveau

Name: Georges DuBoeuf Beaujolais Nouveau
Variety:  Gamay
Region: Beaujolais
Country: France
Year: 2013
Price: $14 (Sale for $3.95)
Winery Review:
"Balanced and lightly creamy, offering pretty flavors of plum sauce and raspberry coulis threaded with hints of ground spice.  Elegant, with a floral finish.  Drink now."

 My Review: 
I really enjoyed the aroma given off by this wine.  It was very ripe and fruity with an emphasis on cherry and plum.  Although it was a red, the taste was actually quite fruity with strong attributes of cherry and raspberry.  After the fruit, a bit of spiciness comes that balances the flavor a little more.  The texture was smooth and somewhat creamy with very little tannins.  The aftertaste carried a floral finish.
