Berets and Beaujolais abound as taste of France brought to English Market

THERE will be a certain je ne sais quoi about Cork’s famous English Market tomorrow as it celebrates the arrival of one of the world’s most anticipated wines.

Berets and baguettes will be the order of the day as the market’s wine merchants, Bubble Brothers, throw a two-day party to mark the delivery of the first bottles of Beaujolais Nouveau 2011.

It is the world’s most famous ‘vin de primeur’, or early wine.
