Lulu Berlue is a recipe that sounds more interesting than it tastes - carbonic blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Grolleau. It’s lighter than you’d expect. Lean and full of blackberry and raspberry and not too different than the last few vintages from Beaujolais. Some little fun bits - piney mint, menthol, tobacco, bitter green stems. Pulpy and murky.

Strawberries. Bit of an overwhelming acid note on opening but that seemed to go away after the first pour. Very easy drinking.

Effervescent, a little juicy, barnyard nose.

Let the fall hibernation begin...
Tiniest bubbles, make this wine feel not as full bodied... Yum
