Easy-going diluted cherry juice on a first sip but aftertaste is heavy as hell - imagine eating a deluxe dark chocolate but it is 100% cacao...

Interesting evolution in the glass. Initially cherry / dark red berries, in 5 minutes pickled cucumbers kick in (think Anton Van Klopper) but in 10 it turns into a fairly boring supermarket red

Candied bright red berries. Light on the palate and all pleasure on the nose.

Not as fruit forward and ‘glou glou’ as I remember it. But still fun for a casual meal with good friends.

Blown away!! This was a revelation on its own. A slightly punchier and candied version of a a good Lapierre Morgon. I need to find some more!

The word "primeur" on the front label was handwritten by Bouju. It is mostly the same cuvée as the standard Violette... just a bit fresher and glouglou-er. It was specially bottled to Stephane Planche from Les Jardins de St Vincent in Arbois.
