Les Burdelines Moulin-à-Vent Gamay

Bright ruby purple. Nose is all crushed cherries undergirded by a classic stony/granitic nose. Fruit notes are lifted with a slightly carbonic character. Tannins are noticable but polished and seem more stony than vegetal.

quite tasty if a little rustic

Pretty good for a ‘15 Bojo. Broad and blocky, but not overwhelmingly so. Nose has lots of clean stony minerality (though not the intense granitic type I prize in this region) and plummy fruit. Acids are soft, but the fruit is pure and clean and the tannins are in check. A solid choice with Lyonnaise Poulet au Vinaigre (a more refined wine would be overwhelmed with this dish).

Super extracted and dark berry fruit with dusty tannins. a potpourri spice wafts from the glass. Brooding. Built to age.

Dark ruby. Mineral-accented aromas of red and dark berries and potpourri are complemented by a licorice nuance that builds with air. Shows bright floral lift on the palate, which offers sappy black raspberry, bitter cherry and spicecake flavors that turn sweeter on the back half. Finishes long and subtly tannic, with repeating floral and licorice notes. This is an almost delicate expression of both the appellation and the vintage. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, August 2021)

This wine smells like a berry pie with a graham cracker crust. Blueberry dominant with hints of raspberry and blackberry. Slightly dusty nose. Fruits are more tart on the palate. Medium plus body with lush mouthfeel, smooth tannin, and nice mineral finish. Great value, would buy again.

Oh magnificent. All them fruit & earth bits ya hope for in delightful proportion.

A little fruity straight out of the bottle, but mellowed flavor once aerated. Nice body and color too.

Deep raspberry on the nose but after much oxidation is smooth, dark fruit flavorful/forward and easy to drink.

Raspberry jello on the nose, light body, white pepper, red fruit.
