Photo Gallery: Beaujolais Nouveau Day 2009 at a Wine Spa
Photographs of the annual Beaujolais Nouveau day being celebrated at an open air wine spa in Hakone, Japan on Thursday, November 19, 2009. Beaujolais Nouveau is a French red whine that is bottled shorlty after its harvest and also does not last very long. Many celebrate it even though they don't consider it a truly fine wine, but enjoy it as a fun annual thing. Others completely right it off as rubbish.
