Intense, crushed berry, meaty, grapey nose.
Not quite clean but not off putting. Palate is intense, almost fatiguing at this point, with red fruit, meat, and a dank, cave like quality, with a thick, soupy texture. Bracing acids give structure to the finish. This is quite different and complex, but not clean. Other loved it, I had trouble with the second glass. This is a hold, for softening and unraveling.

Fruit is very ripe and grapey with a faint perception of sweetness, some anise and spices and bubble gum.

Ripeness and carbonic quality more than terroir at this point. Plus a long meaty amino finish- some funky microbial thing going on.

Day three and this is all broth. Not super appealing. Not at the top of my list for this price point.

complex beaujolais - crushed berries, tobacco, spice - it’s not completely filtered, which i appreciate. i’d pair with a ribeye
