According to French law, every year’s harvest of  Beaujolais Nouveau cannot be uncorked until the third Thursday of November. Well that day is finally here, and 1905 is throwing a party to celebrate the occasion.

On Wednesday, November 14, 1905 is teaming up with Brightest Young Things for the fifth year in a row to uncork bottles of Beaujolais Nouveau  once the clock strikes midnight. The party starts at 10 pm and will include a D.J., a dance-a-thon and free Beaujolais Nouveau wine from midnight until 2 am. Tickets for the evening are $10 and can be purchased online.

1905 will host normal dinner service (with some additional French specials beforehand), but will stop seating tables around 8:30 pm to make room for the party. 1905 Bistro & Bar is located at 1905 9th Street NW.
