Born to Beaujolais in July in the USA

French tradition. In the USA?  Wait one minute. Summer. Chicago. Beaujolias. The hell with French tradition. I’m celebrating with some Beaujolias in July. France can thank me later!

According to French law, Beaujolais Nouveau is released at one minute past midnight on the third Thursday of November. This decades-old tradition is celebrated worldwide with creative events, heralding the wine’s arrival. We’re changing it to July here in Chicago! At least for one night.
