Philly Wine Week organized a citywide celebration for Beaujolais Nouveau Day 2019. Bars around Philly will serve the red wine for $9 per glass.
Each year, on the third Thursday of November, the latest vintage of Beaujolais Nouveau is released worldwide at 12:01 a.m.
Known as Beaujolais Nouveau Day, it's a time to celebrate the red wine made from hand-picked Gamay grapes from the Beaujolais region of France.
Beaujolais Nouveau is light and easy to drink, making it a good wine to share with friends.
For this year's release, Philly Wine Week has enlisted more than 15 restaurants/bars to be part of one big citywide celebration, including Bloomsday Cafe, Friday Saturday Sunday, Tria and Bistro Romano.
The 2019 wine will be offered at $9 per glass from Thursday, Nov. 21, through Sunday, Nov. 24, at participating locations.
In addition, each place will offer a glass of cru wine from one of the 10 different locations within the Beaujolais region. For example, Jet Wine Bar will serve a wine from Juliénas, located at one end of the region, and Kensington Quarters will serve a wine from Brouilly, located at the opposite end of the region.
