JUST found this: Gamay volumes are down for the second year in a row, but quality shines. Wine Spectator reviews 9 tasty Nouveaus
https://www.winespectator.com/articles/2022-beaujolais-nouveau-a-banner-vintage
Sounds GOOD! Gotta get daughter and son in law to pick some up, when they return home:
First, the good news: Frances Beaujolais region experienced an outstanding vintage, which means the 2022 Nouveauavailable as always on the third Thursday of November, aka Beaujolais Nouveau Dayare some of the best-tasting ever. In Wine Spectators blind-tasting, the wines showed especially juicy, fresh and aromatic, with greater density than is typical for these usually light-bodied reds.
Thanks to the quality of the crop, I believe this is the best Nouveau weve ever made, says Bruno Bererd who runs Domaine de la Madone with his brother, Olivier. I like the balance: fine tannins, juicy as a Gamay should be, and complex aromas of cherry, violet and peony. . .
It is a great, great vintage. I compare it to 2018, says Maison Duboeufs Franck Duboeuf. We just dont have enough wine. He estimates that volumes for the entire Duboeuf linefrom the Nouveau to the village and cru wines at the topare down by more than one-third for the second consecutive year.'
