A Régnié which expresses itself on the side of black cherries, kirsch, or Plum Eau de vie. The nose is very expressive and counterbalances a very dry character in the mouth, almost salty. Aerial, accurate. To drink.
Note revised upwards, at D+1 because it held up admirably and even opened up to additional nuances. A sincere wine. Really well done.
Un Régnié qui s’exprime du côté des cerises noires, kirsch, ou encore Eau de vie de prune. Le nez est très expressif et contrebalance un caractère très sec en bouche, quasi salin. Aérien, précis. À boire.
Note revue à la hausse, à J+1 car il a admirablement tenu et s’est même ouvert sur des nuances supplémentaires. Un vin sincère. Vraiment bien fait. — 3 years ago
Dusty cellar tannin nose, even after a few hours..
What I thought would be a fruit forward wine, turns out to have some structure to it, layers of prune, black olive, dark flowers, like violets, and lavender. Ends in a long finish of absorbic acidity, light peppery tannin.
A chilly night wine, for sure. — 5 years ago

Classic. Light but tight, could probably stand a number of years to find it’s prime. Raspberry, tart cherry. — 4 years ago
No formal notes, but such a joy...
Had it with wifey in plastic glasses, on the lawn, on a sunny day, on the right side of the street.
It was a magnum and we could not stop drinking it. I possess 2 more bottles that i should have no hurry to open, but....you know...it was such a success!!!😍😍🙏🙏
Super long after taste

One of my favorites from La Paulée’s “low cost” Off the Grid tasting. Cru Beaujolais by Jean Paul Thevenet, one of the four members of the “Gang of Four”. Gamay from 70-100 years old vines. Aged for 6-8 months in old barrels. Perfumed nose, aromas of red fruit. Structured, serious wine. — 3 years ago

Sweeter. More forward fruit notes. Dry finish. — 6 years ago
