Beaujolais Nouveau 2026 marks the worldwide release of the first wine from the year's harvest, a celebrated French tradition that takes place simultaneously across the globe on the third Thursday of November.
In Estonia, the official celebration is organised by the France Estonia Chamber of Commerce (CCI France Estonie) in partnership with the French Embassy in Estonia and Veiniateljee.
The event is one of the season's most anticipated business and social gatherings.
Produced exclusively from the Gamay grape, Beaujolais Nouveau is a light, fruity red wine known for its fresh flavours of red cherry, raspberry, and banana. Its distinctive character comes from a rapid winemaking method called carbonic maceration.
More than just a wine release, Beaujolais Nouveau has become a global celebration of the harvest, bringing together wine enthusiasts, professionals, and friends to share a festive moment and discover the first taste of the 2026 vintage.
