Very nice. Dark for Beaujolais. Serious, carbonique complexity

Wilder, juicier, more feral than the 2017 Chamonard Madone Fleurie tried side by side. Less development in the bottle, fresher, cleaner, juicier. Really quite nice, pure tart length. Maybe a 9.3 if this holds up in the fridge.

Outstanding. One of relatively few 2018s that I have thoroughly enjoyed so far. Excellent balance of fruit, structure, acid and tannin.

Crunchy tart cranberry, strawberry, red plum, and pomegranate. Lifted floral notes of rose petal. Crushed stone. Elevated acid, low tannins, medium alcohol. Cold semi carbonic.

Black cherry and bracing acidity right off the bat. Secondary wave is more woodsy - leafy tobacco and mushrooms. I would love to have this with roast chicken on a Sunday evening.

A proper charmer: vibrant nose, open and transparent fruit, persistent mineral core, lifted fresh finish. Mulberry, black cherry, bergamot, lavender, granite. Yes please, all the time.

Rocks and plush fruit. Should be my daily drinker.

Too tart for my taste, even after a few days.
