Nice, light, fruity. Just what I was looking for in a Beaujolais with better than typical depth. Good QPR.

Jan 14th, 2024Great nose but could use a bit more concentration in the mouth. Nose has tons of granite and hard dark cherry candy. Soft- textured and very pure and minerally in the mouth. In the mid-palate it vanishes for a bit, but then comes back in a nice finish.

Red fruits on the nose - strawberry and raspberry. Soft flavors of red berries as well with a mineral background. There's a fun sweet and sour note playing together - the sour from the slightly acidic berry notes and then the sweetness reminds me of Red Vines licorice. Nice smooth tannins, the acidity is just enough to brighten and balance, the fruit is very forward and delicious but there's other things there to keep it interesting. It's less floral and silky than the Fleurie I had before this, but still an excellent Beaujolais, my second favorite of all time so far

Nov 3rd, 2019Light ruby/garnet in color. Aromas of cherry, raspberry, violet, licorice, rubber, and stone. Dry palate with medium-high acidity. Lingering finish with substantial tannins and hints of white pepper and minerals. Relatively straightforward; but otherwise easy-drinking and compatible with wide variety of foods.
