Abarbanel Beaujolais Villages 2002

Abarbanel does an excellent job on their Beaujolais, so much so that their Beaujolais Noveau is occassionaly rated among the best in the US. This Beaujolais is estate-bottled, usually a mark of higher quality in these wines, a guarantee that the grapes have some traceability and accounting.
Abarbanel's Beaujolais is a fun wine to drink. Its intense fruitiness makes it palatable to people who prefer sweeter wines. This is the wine I usually bring with me when I don't know about the tastes of the person with whom I will share the wine; and I try to keep at least one of these on my wine rack.
