Domaine Lucien Lardy
"Les Moriers" Fleurie Gamay



110-year old vines. More mid-palate depth than many 21 Bojos I’ve had. Fantastic nose blasts out crunchy ripe dark cherry fruit and pungent deep-toned rock dust. A nice red floral/red licorice note too. Deep flavors are ripped with acids, leading to a crisp, almost austere-feeling, minerally finish. Finish is a tad clipped, but still really nice.

Fruity bright raspberry-pomegranate juice. Thanksgiving dinner starter!

Bright red fruit, tastes actually like a Beauj rather than the moulin a vent we had yesterday. Has some of that stemmyness in the middle that I love. Starts big fruit then follows with the stems or an earthy ness and a green note. I almost get a herb note at the very end that is slight. Charming I like it but at the price point there are others I might like more. Grab it tho. Need to try more fleurie.
