Beaujolais nouveau is a wine of the Gamay variety produced in the Beaujolais (AOC) region of France that is authorized for immediate sale after fermentation.

 30 Second Wine Advisor: Beaujolais Nouveau - wineloverspage.com
Beaujolais is uniquely suited for this trick: Traditionally a light, early-drinking wine anyway, the regional grape variety - Gamay - lends itself to the vinification method (technically, carbonic maceration) that yields a short-lived but quaffable wine that can be drunk within a couple of months after the harvest.
Some genius in Beaujolais came up with the idea as recently as the post-World War II years: Take the grapes of the new vintage, and use wine-making tricks to create a fresh, fruity and simple little wine that can be rushed to market within weeks of the vintage.
Beaujolais Nouveau I ignore my own preaching and venture out to taste the new wine.

Typically, Beaujolais nouveau has a characteristic freshness and fruitiness with lots of cherries and berries in the mouth, a pleasant grapy smell and a lovely, light purplish-red color.

 Red Scare - Stay away from that Beaujolais Nouveau, sucker. By Mike Steinberger
Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, when the wine was available, bottles of Duboeuf's Beaujolais Nouveau would fly off the shelves, more than a few of the bottles landing on holiday dinner tables.
Why it was decided to make the region's humblest juice—a wine mainly borne of its worst vineyards, a wine barely removed from the fermentation vat, a wine that is nothing more than pleasantly tart barroom swill—its international standard bearer is a question that will undoubtedly puzzle marketing students for generations to come.
The frenzy led many consumers to assume that Beaujolais was meant only to be drunk in the late autumn; that Nouveau, the cheapest Beaujolais there is, was the only one worth drinking; and that Duboeuf was the only name that mattered.
