Yes, they initially missed ‘Beaujolais Nouveau Day‘, viz. November 17, 2022 (the 3rd Thursday of November) — see below — THEN they decided they were only going to sell it South of Concord.
I went looking for a bottle, on December 1, 2022, to the ‘Gilford’ store. Didn’t see a display. So, I asked a lady. She directed me, immediately, to THE MANGER. He was on the ball. Gave me the whole scoop. The Commission had decided that only stores South of Concord would get the 2022 ‘Beaujolais Nouveau’! I was gobsmacked. What? We are now 2nd class citizens within the State. The Manager, to his credit (& he is a v. nice guy), was not happy & said that he had sent an e-mail complaining. He also added that his e-mail did nothing & he did not expect that they would even bother to take any notice of it.
I was livid.
I think the Commissioner, Joseph W. Mollica, should be impeached. This is a crime against us — those living North of Concord. The sheer audacity.
I called and complained. They said someone will call me back to discuss. They never did. Not good.
