Clos De La Roilette
Vendange Tardive Fleurie Gamay
Fleurie, Beaujolais, Burgundy, France
Never tire of these flavors of bold, black currant & black cherries. A Fleurie that drinks like a Moulin A Vent, especially the Tardive. Also a BBQ accompaniment

Richer as it should be. More fruit and extraction. Reminds me of Moulin - a - Vent from a serious producer. Less earth than the entry cuvée.

Feb 8th, 2021The Tardive really is an uptick in depth though this is such kick ass Beaujolais I’ve always felt it deserves its own category (Kick A- Beaujo). Black cherries, but seriously black, oodles of fruit but it’s the minerality & acid that sets it apart, along w the depth. Medium bodied, taut( not tight somehow). Ribena with cracked black pepper nose. Blind tasting w friends but guessed to be every region but Beaujo. If I remember the history right, this is more of a Moulin Vent property, so makes some sense it has such gravitas- which is what it is, a joyous wine with gravitas. Dressner importer. Oh, and it’s ok to try now, it’s not infanticide. 25$ on sale- that’s just stupid.
