Nice deal. Light, bright acidity, some ripe red fruits and a bit of tannin on the finish.

Clear, bright, fluid cherry color.
Open floral nose, tangy red fruits of natural wine. Palate: great finesse. Carbonic maceration and its gourmet contribution are nuanced by light oaky touch, and the four years of age; offering a magnificent aromatic palette evoking in turn a pinot noir from Alsace, a Burgundy or Moulin-à-Vent. It's light, gourmet, delicate. What a pleasure! The balance is perfect.

Robe cerise limpide, éclatante, fluide.
Nez ouvert floral, fruits rouges acidulés de vin nature, peu souffré. Bouche: grande finesse. La macération carbonique et son apport gourmand sont nuancés par l’élevage, et les quatre ans d’âge; offrant une magnifique palette aromatique évoquant tour à tour un pinot noir d’Alsace, un Bourgogne autant qu’un Chiroubles ou Moulin-à-Vent. C’est léger, gourmand, délicat. Quel plaisir! L’équilibre est parfait. Avec encore quelques années il vieillira dans un style bourguignon...

Cherry, cherry moonlight, hay, and a bloody thing. what a fruity nose ! The palate is very acid driven with a nice touch all around the palate and fruits, mostly cherry. Very round yet with a grip, not boring at all. A rather long finish with a nice ripe cherry all along. What a nice beaujo!
