Chateau-Prety, Beaujolais Villages, 2007

Comes from Saint Veran. I think it is an outstanding Beaujolais. The wine has great balance. It is significantly less fruity than a garden variety Beaujolais-Village yet is it still pretty soft displaying typical Gamay flavors. The wine has almost Burgundian qualities. Don't expect it to rival Chambolle Musigny but you are paying only $14.99 for that one (Arrows Wine, Arlington). Good with and without food. I like it the best at about 60F serving temperature
