I have never been disappointed by a Cru Beaujolais, though I admit the first day this #brouilly was closed and a touch unbalanced on the tart side. Wine fridge +1 day and it’s expressed itself pleasantly. Cooked raspberry, lighter cherry nose, lovely acid-forward balance with more pronounced fruit on the second day, understated mineral notes. Good decision to buy 3 bottles at less than $20 each @ #costcowines — a year ago

Plummy and almost a little smoky. Love the texture. It became a much softer wine after aerating, and on the second day had lost most of its bite. — 5 years ago

Pretty light garnet ruby , wide light garnet rim. Quite high toned and spiced nose , honied dry herbs , sweet dried raspberry , strawberry and rose . On the palate this is quite light and refreshing in style , with light sweet red fruits and herbal touches , balanced acidity and a saline hint . Rounded light tannins and good length finish . This is ready , quite charming , ethereal and balanced . Drink now and over the next few years — a year ago

Opened sometime prior to dinner; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 2010 pours a deep ruby/purple color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of dark, bramble fruit, black pepper, purple flowers, anise, cocoa, mixed herbs and gravelly earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Currently in the zone. Delicious stuff. Drink now through 2035.  — 6 months ago
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of dinner at Le Mazenay. The 2019 pours a deep ruby/purple color with a translucent core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe mixed brambles, some dried red and purple flowers, a touch of VA, some black pepper, some anise and dry earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. A fantastic pairing with partridge. Already showing very well in its youth. Drink now through 2034+. — 7 months ago
