The Fun of Beaujolais Nouveau Parties
After the rugby game on Saturday, we were invited to a wine-tasting party at one of the places we like to go when we’re buying Christmas presents for someone special. (In other words, a little expensive). They had the Beaujolais Nouveau bottled just for them, and so we had wine and got to taste little nibbles of delicious treats as well…and then of course we bought a bottle to take home and enjoy later!
After the wine tasting, we went to Toulon’s annual book sale – which was located on le Place d’armes. (One of the more beautiful squares in Toulon.) The book sale is always lots of fun – it’s crowded, noisy and you get the chance to actually meet your favorite French authors.
We have a bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau for Saturday night – we’re having friends over for dinner to try out my new fondue service – and we’ll be enjoying a little Beaujolais at the same time!
Oh – and I picked a winner for the bottle of Beaujolais from the entries to the contest – and I sent the bottle yesterday! Congrats Dianne – enjoy!
