Dark cherry, stoney-earthy, pepper, fresh and clean but not too complex. A nice quaffer.

Fresh. Tart. Quaffer. Deep purple but is a lot juicer than it looks. Drank at home. Had been the Toby Herman Xmas bottle gift.

Light red that elevated Chilean sea bass. No acidic after taste.

Perfect. Light, lean, acidic. Not overpowering tannins - will be better in a year. W/ Theo

Not really a classic Beaujolais, maybe just in a strange space? On the nose, some dried flowers, herbs and red fruit. In the mouth, high toned red fruit, herbs and dried flowers. High acid, medium finish.

Quite enjoyed this wine. Heavier and meatier than most. Not as much minerality as I would like.

This wine has few redeeming qualities. Flabby, disjointed and overall blah.
