Default Beaujolais Nouveau Release today

Anyone else do this one for Thanksgiving. I know it is an inexpensive wine, but people sure drink it. And it has this cool midnight marketing gimmick.

Usually I like the B. N. not great quality but a nice little diversion. Normally I like Georges Deboueff but this year the wine tasted like cheese! Not good.... (To me anyway)

LOL we grabbed one the other night, were wine shopping late and weren't going to cook, just eat some raw milk cheeses we got from 2 local small farms and artisanal bread from a bakery we hit, so we thought let's grab a bottle of BN, tis the season. the DeBoeuf was all they had. I tasted it only after a mouthfull of strong cheese, so I think that helped not perceive the cheese taste you're talking about.
