As you may have guessed, the 3rd Thursday in November means a Beaujolais evening. It's been a French tradition since 1985, and every year it's the same story: get together, toast, taste and enjoy. We've got everything you need to organise your Beaujolais party! 🍷
___VINISSIMO & DIVINO
📍 1 rue Fédéric Guillaume Raiffeisen, L-2411 Luxembourg
If you're looking to relax with a nice glass of Beaujolais Nouveau, the Divino restaurant is the place to be. The little extra? It's located inside the Vinissimo Italian grocery shop. The atmosphere is friendly, and you can sample the wine while enjoying an aperitif board with cold meats and cheeses. What better way to start the evening 🥂
If you prefer to organise the evening yourself, you can pop down to the grocery shop to buy everything you need to prepare your super happ'ero: charcuterie, cheeses, antipasti... It's all there!
___VINOTECA📍 12 Côte d'Eich, L-1450 Ville Haute
Vinoteca is more than just a wine shop. It's a bit like Disneyland for grown-ups: once through the door, you'll marvel at the more than 3,000 bottles of references, from all over the world, including a selection of Beaujolais.
You can go there with your eyes closed: having been there several times, we can confirm that Charline and Arnaud know exactly how to guide you to the bottle that's right for you. Pssst, if you like, they even make tasting boxes! 🎁
