First Beaujolais. Floral and earthy. Mild on the nose, beautiful plum color.

Pale ruby hue. Aromas and flavors of bread, cherry, strawberry, toast, and vanilla. Medium-minus body; medium-minus tannins; and medium-plus acidity. Ripe, fresh, fruity bouquet on the nose; a smooth mouthfeel; and a short, easy finish. Simple and straightforward.

Aug 31st, 2020Smooth and delicate to taste. Earthy, sweet(hint of cherries), floral, and great for the summer. Though there’s nothing quite remarkable about it. I enjoyed it thoroughly with rosemary chicken and greens. It paired very well. It would go great with a fresh salad. Lightly chilled on a hot summer day! ✨

My first #beaujolaisvillages - once it warms up from cold to cool, smells of distant cherry pie with faint baking spices, keen acidity in the palate, a delicate frame around muted oak and soft tannins against a quick finish. When drank too cold it still paired really nicely on a sweltering Texas summer afternoon with grilled cheese burgers. Though not the most expressive example, nice QPR for $14 at Total Wine

LOVE this - so fresh and zippy. Feels a few steps away from Lambrusco almost. I wish I’d chilled it!
