Price more than doubled due to yen depreciation Beaujolais Nouveau lifted
今年、摘まれたばかりのブドウから作られたフランス産ワイン「ボージョレ・ヌーボー」の販売が17日午前0時に解禁されました
This year, the sale of French wine ”Beaujolais Nouveau” made from freshly picked grapes was lifted at midnight on the 17th.
An event to coincide with the lifting of the ban was held for the first time in three years, and the mood is full of celebration.
At restaurants in Tokyo, an event was held to taste Beaujolais Nouveau at the time the ban was lifted.
Due to the continued warm weather this year, the sugar content of the grapes is high, and the sweet and sour taste is reminiscent of berries and strawberries.
However, due to soaring transportation costs and record-breaking yen depreciation, prices have jumped up to about 2.2 times compared to last year.
In addition, the import volume is expected to decrease to about 50% of last year’s level.
