($16, Frederick Wildman):  Stéphane Aviron describes his 2009 Beaujolais as “sunny wines” because of the warmth of the vintage.  Anyone who thinks that all Beaujolais is just tutti-fruity and jammy should try his wines.  Spiced with a touch of minerality, this 2009 Beaujolais Villages harbors not a hint of overt grapey flavors.  It’s the reason Beaujolais remains such a popular wine.  Try this easy to recommend wine with roast chicken, pizza or burgers. 89 Michael Apstein Apr 3, 2012
