Wine Connoisseurs Welcome Beaujolais Nouveau Season

NEW YORK - NOVEMBER 16: Franck Duboeuf, son of winemaker Georges Duboeuf, holds a box of this season's Beaujolais Nouveau at an uncorking gathering for the French wine November 16, 2006 in New York City. While the harvest date of Beaujolais changes each year, French law dictates the release date of Beaujolais Nouveau is always the third Thursday of November. Beaujolais, from the French region just north of Lyon, is best served slightly chilled. (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
