By French Law, Beaujolais Nouveau - a light and fruity red wine known for its light, easy to drink flavor - is only released from wineries at the stroke of midnight on the third Thursday of every November. In France, this starts a 'fete populaire' from the streets of country villages to the heart of Paris.

An estimated 2,000 wine lovers will be among the first to taste the 2005 Beaujolais Nouveau as well as many excellent Beaujolais vintages. Guests will be immersed in French culture with gourmet food displays, a tempting silent auction, caricaturists, dancing, and of course the Grand Wine Tasting!

Some of this year’s festival Gourmet Food Sponsors are: Chez Gérard, Dakota’s Steakhouse, Dallas Market Center, Evian, Hôtel St. Germain, Lavendou Bistro Provençal, La Duni Latin Café, Main Street Bread Baking Company, Mozzarella Company & Empire Bakery, Paciugo Gelato, Perrier, Rendezvous, Spike, and more…
