Decent fruit concentration on the nose, rich cherry with a chalk minerality. This follows through on the palate, fruit is a touch bitter and there's little complexity or length but this is honest and approachable.

It's good wine, but not great. We had it before a Malbec, so maybe that ruined it. It's light, fruity, easy to drink.

I know some look down on Beaujolais but sometimes it is exactly what is required - light, easy drinking and uncomplicated.
