The return of the red cat

A couple of Novembers ago, we found a bottle of Beaujolais nouveau at our local supermarket called Le Chat Rouge (The Red Cat) and thought it was tasty. This year, we found some more and bought three bottles. And it was good this year, too.

Put a cork in it!

These are the corks from the bottles. They're plastic corks. Here's a link to the post I did in 2011 with a photo of the label.

  1. Thanks for the tip. I have not had much luck with Beaujolais Nouveau in the past.

  2. For a second I thought that Bertie had found a new (girl)friend :)! But to stick to the subject of your post, this year's Beaujolais Nouveau is exceptionally good! Hope you'll enjoy your 'red cat'. Martine

  3. Just curious, almost our bottles of wine, local and imported not longer have corks, but metal screw caps. Is this the case in France too? Sparkling wine, formerly know here as champagne, still has corks.

  4. I love the colours of whatever you've used as the background to your photo. Placemat? We'll look out for the Red Cat. P.

  5. Cute ;) I, too, like the colors of the background. Is it a placemat, as Tim asked?

  6. I like the name. It's good they're maintaining their quality.
