Cool to try, but probably was better a couple of years back

Nice, fruity Bojo. Not too stemmy, just delicious, and complex enough to be "serious."

Bright cherry, sour cherry, acid, and some funky earthen herbs. Robitussinal. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Entry level Beaujolais, except there is nothing entry level about how it tastes. Rich, yet tart cherries and dusty earth. High acid, but not cutting. Pretty, yet forceful. Simple, but not dumbed down.

Cherry, raspberry and cranberry. Surprisingly tannic and heavy mouthfeel. Great with tonight's roast chicken, excellent Fall wine

Solid lil wine. Pushing a bit more cranberry on the plate than I traditionally prefer. Automatically reminiscent of peppered salami, pomegranate rind and boysenberry. This is a juicy wine with more tannin than acidity.

Ripe Gamay with a deep violet color and toned tannin. Bursting with juicy berry flavors and a touch of damp soil.

Basic Beaujolais that is so on point, it becomes something greater. #gamaylove

Not bashful. Extroverted Juicy fruity, concentrated ripeness at 12.5% abv comes across sweet. Happy party wine.
