Weekend Wine... 2007 Jean Foillard Morgon
August 28, 2009 at 9:45 am by Jay
Remember a few weeks back when we posted a link to Eric Asimov's Beaujolais Top 10 list? The list made us very happy. My one quibble would be that Jean Foillard should have been #1. There's little doubt that he hit the Grand Slam of the very good 2007 vintage. We tend to carry the bulk of wines on Asimov's list, so stop in and we'll mix you up a box of top-tier Beaujolais. And swing by Friday/Saturday for a taste of Beaujolais greatness. Think you don't like Gamay? Foillard is about to win you over. You'd have to be averse to happiness to dislike this red. Maybe you walk through town scowling at babies and giving the stink eye to puppies. If so, Jean Foillard is not for you. May I interest you, glum sir, in our finest used bottle of Charles Shaw?
