Le Vin Nouveau 2011
We invite you to celebrate with us and celebrate with the world. According to tradition, at one minute after midnight on the third Thursday of each November, winemakers from villages in France release their first vintage of the year, Beaujolais Nouveau, with much fanfare. Come to Appellation: California and celebrate with the Fresno State Winery in the release of the first wines of our 2011 vintage made in the style true to Beaujolais Nouveau!
