Loads of lively, crunchy cherry fruit, a wisp of cinnamon, crushed stone. Intensely concentrated flavors in the mouth. Cherry, licorice, savory minerals. Medium acids. Relatively full body. Lots of character.

Soft and fruity, grapey and flabby with no finish. Simple plonk over priced at $14.

Dark cherry or plum, gravel/slate, savory notes almost meaty. Some hints of baking spices. Well balanced acidity, mild tannins, alcohol and medium body. Lingers well. No barnyard on the nose like the last bottle I had.

A lot barnyard on the nose, mild cherry and some lavender maybe. Some gravel or slate on the palate. Very mellow tannins, but not gone. Some acidity, low to medium body.

Delicious! Well balanced, great legs, an all-around good bottle. Will definitely buy again if I can find it!

Not much of a nose, raspberries, tart and thin, needs a chill. Tastes like a bistro wine - Beaujolais or Beaujolais-villages - but not a cru from an excellent year. Waaaay overpriced at $30

Nose of Pomegranate and violet. Very light bodied, unbalanced towards high acidity, finish is lacking. But fruity and easy to drink. For the price, would not buy again. Expected more from a Fleurie.
