Extra tutti frutti in this vintage. Not the most interesting but plenty lively and fun

Pungent nose has a bit of barnyard and bigly tangy berry fruit. Some high-toned crumbly rock too. Lively and vigorous in the mouth, with the tangy element and crisp acids dominant. Nice with a garlicky grilled chicken warm pasta salad.

Fleshy, a denser and slightly muscular wine, you can taste the warmth of 2017, it lacks a little definition. A curious expression as always with this Gamay bottling. Muddled wild red fruit, cured meat, black pepper, wilted violets, smashed herbs. VA pokes out a touch. Elevated CO2 adds some prickle, with air it was hardly noticeable. Curious what 6-12mo in bottle will do. Day 2: some air has really helped out. More in line with the style of Souhaut’s gamay. More clarity and definition, perfumed has arrived. Still warm and joli, I quite like its open-knit structure.

I like a bit of brett but this had WAY too much. It covered up all the other flavors.
