I'm just here to enjoy a good glass of wine...and by good, I mean one that I like. : ) Sorry for the Bitchy Clerk!!! At least you found a great wine. I pick out wines from labels, too. It's like when I pick a horse for the KY Derby...I go on name and color of silks alone. hee hee hee Speaking of bitchy clerks...about 7 years ago, I walked into a local shoe store and asked about knee-high black leather boots. The store girl looked at me like I was asking for white go-go boots and said, "Ugh. That is SO last season!" What an idiot! Because I'm pretty sure that's around the time that "hooker boots" (as I used to refer to them) just started to gain popularity...and are STILL very stylish!! Stupid salesgirl!!!

Bojo Nouveau is released right before Thanksgiving every year and is made for pretty much immediate consumption and enjoyment, it's not a wine that improves with any aging. It's fair to say that any store that still has some left in January probably bought too much and is having trouble selling through it. If you can still find some, grab it up and drink it!

Oh well. C'est la vie! Hey Lys – I actually recently bought some too so I was doubly taken aback when I got chastised at the wine store for asking about it. Oh well. C’est la vie!
