Very candied, floral and crunchy. Best enjoyed soonish I think and lacked a little bit of depth but a nice bottle and easy drinking

Really like this. Earth, ripe red fruit, pleasant vegetal edge.

Extremely earthy, tasted like beets to me. Disappointed. Still finished it

Red fruits to the side, candied orange and white peaches dominate here. Super floral. A simple chalky structure and an underlying slatey minerality. Easy drinking, and probably best consumed youth. A great intro to the Saint-Amour Cru for me.
