Refreshing and funky. Good acidity and length. Potential for greatness, if there were a bit more flavor depth.

A little stinky on opening, but blossoming into a beautiful bottle of Brouilly. Damn, I love cru Beaujolais! #gamayparty

Sustained, interesting wine. Red fruits, spices, and a nice acidic finish.
