Wine enthusiasts around Bulgaria join in the fun on 15 November as the world celebrates the release of the 2012 vintage exclaiming, “It’s Beaujolais Nouveau Day!” Unique among wines, Beaujolais Nouveau is light and fruity, meant to be consumed while young. The celebration began more as a marketing gimmick than anything else, but over the years has grown into a celebration of wine, friends and happiness.
