Juliénas Les Cerisiers Gamay

Good body. Lighter style

At least I can get this in a blind:)

Solid redfruits, clean and somewhat straightforward, but an enjoyable Cru Beaujolais on a hot Davis night!!

Floral, redfruits and an underlying minerality, medium-weight, soft structure, medium-long finish, drinking well tonight.

Must drink with food. Tart but smooth. Enjoy others more.

Topline

Clean, redfruits, ready and pleasant to drink, but neither enough floral or mineral notes, nor sufficient depth, to be rated higher.

A deep ruddy maroon color in the glass. Off top, this is a superb Gamay and it announces itself immediately. The nose is pure Bojo goodness with a multifaceted presentation. Moist earth, moist leaves, and blueberries. Warm spice and a dollop of nutmeg. Olives and mushrooms show out too.

Nice weight to be found here along with good structure and the typical Beaujolais fun. Medium bodied with a streak of spice throughout. This baby is only focused on the fun and having a good time. Nothing too deep or complex about it so don’t overthink it. Buy a bunch of these and open them whenever.

Not a fan.

Tannic, but went well with chicken in tomatoes sauce.
