AT ONE MINUTE PAST MIDNIGHT on the third Thursday of each November from little villages and towns north of Lyon in the Beaujolais region, over a million cases of Beaujolais Nouveau begin their journey through a sleeping France to Paris for immediate shipment to all parts of the world (New Zealand being the first country in the world, every year to enjoy a glass of Beaujolais Nouveau). Banners proclaim the good news: Le Beaujolais Nouveau est arrivé! - "The New Beaujolais has arrived!" Photos to follow as tonight will be a fun time!
