Hey Bette - here's another hint about the Nouveau Beaujolais (I use that as an excuse to have a tasting party each year! IT's actually more a "getting sloshed" party than tasting...but anyway....) throw an ice cube in it! It's one of those young reds that can benefit from a little chill!
And if you like Beaujolais - try Georges duBouef's Morgon. (It's a type of Beaujolais that I love - and not just because it sounds like my dog's name!) In Penna (which is way more expensive for wine than anywhere else in the world) it's about $13 or $14 a bottle.
