100% Gamay, Ruby color with aromas of fresh red fruits and hints of floral spice. On the palate flavors of cherry, raspberry and black currants with notes of pepper spice, lively acidity and balance. Medium finish, soft tannins, ending with a juicy fruit and floral character. Nice value, easy drinking. Drink now no aging benefit.

A classic Burgundy in richness, balance, and finish. Only somewhat uninspired. Lacked depth and complexity in flavors. Or it could be my Covid condition has affected my nose!

I really liked this. Went well with my turkey scallopini piaziola. While very light, it has faint tannin and nice Summer fruit. 100% Gamay and works well with good olive oil and light garlic. Easy and quaffable and lightens up further when left in the glass. This won’t compete with heavy red meat or strong spice but works well for a good light red.

light and drinkable, a bit one dimensional but not lacking on the ripe fruit flavor... especially some of the strawberry and plumb notes. alcohol-y after taste and slightly tannic. pretty good value all in all. 🍓🍇
