1 person found it helpfulMay 21st, 2016Pretty complex and evolved nose: crunchy dark cherry and ripe plum, a smoky note, and stones. Lean, intense, and intensely stony in the mouth, with some puckery but soft tannin and serious acids. In contrast to the friendly nose, the mouthfeel is a bit austere and relatively macho (for a Beaujolais). Would cut nicely through dishes with rich wine and/or tomato sauces.

May 4th, 2016Nice wine. Everything you would expect from a good Cru Beaujolais. Just didn't have that next level of complexity to make it great.

Mar 8th, 2016Nice red fruit aromas and flavors, nice Gamay fruit, not a ton of complexity, though.

Dec 26th, 2021In an awkward phase with minimal fruit, a bit of astringency and tartness and a whiff of oak still. Needs time to come together. Lovely nose. Blocky palate lacks definition

Mar 17th, 2018Stony, slightly metallic nose. Big and brooding on the palate. This is no floating strawberry example. Powerful and intense.

Sep 14th, 2016Medium ruby. Floral, vanilla strawberry shortcake, raspberry, a bit toasty biscuit, cherry. Medium plus to high acidity, medium sugar, medium alcohoL
Guessed it to be a NW Pinot, probably Oregon.
