Sipping Fine Wine

Ruby with aromas of fresh red berry fruits, floral and spice notes. On the palate flavors of ripe cherry and plum with dried flowers and baking spice. Fine soft tannins, good acidity, medium(+) finish ending fruit character, ok to chill slightly before enjoying. Consistent, tasted several vintages.

Very shut down and simple nose of strawberry, cherry, tobacco leaf, and resin. The palate has high acid, fairly harsh astringency, flavors of stemmy leafiness, eucalyptus, and cranberry. Not much going on and tastes very underripe. Not a good example of Bojo.

Clear distinction from the other crus, particularly the feminine qualities of Fleurie. Still the juicy the qualities of a Beaujolais, but a touch more earthiness or chalkiness. The acidity on this one was a bit austere. If you like fresh strawberries, you'd like this.

Decent wine, low undertones. Shut down, not bold or acidic but drinkable
