Popped and poured; enjoyed out of red Solo cups over the course of a few hours. The 2007 “Cuvée La Côte Ronde” pours a deep ruby/purple color with a near opaque core. On the nose, the wine is vinous with powerful notes of ripe and slightly dried black and red fruit: blackberries, Marionberries, black cherry, a mix of red and purple flowers, a touch of rotundone, some new leather, a touch of Kalamata olive, stony earth and a mix of cool spices and fine baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin (integrated) and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, baby. Personally, I have struggled to appreciate the modern profile of Paul Autard (100% new French Oak). However, this is an intensely sensual wine. I cannot deny it. Really good stuff. Drink now through 2032. — 2 months ago

Pretty Burgundian. A bit primary though. — 2 months ago

See earlier note, this is a great Bordeaux blend- 75% Cab Sauvignon , 14% Cab Franc and 11% Merlot.
A deep ruby colour with nice berry fruit nose and good acidity and long finish.
Excellent wine — 2 months ago

This aged Beaujolais is just gorgeous, crushed red berries, minerals, floral, great acidity, long, lingering finish, could easily evolve another 5 years in a cold cellar, truly an outstanding wine from a great Beaujolais vintage!! — 2 months ago
