Decent. 15€ a bit spicy and a little tobacco. Chewy. A bit hot at the end. Gamay

A blend of Gamay and Pinot Noir. Ruby with nice floral aromas. On the palate red fruit flavors with some nutty tones and fresh spice. Medium finish, nice balance ending with sweet fruit character. Nice value.

Very beautiful expression of this grape. Light in fruit and tannins, balanced acid and a very smooth finish.

Jammy and tart, notes of plumes and blackberries. Would be pretty versatile with food

Raspberry and black cherry on the nose. Black current (Ribena) dominates for me on the palette along with wood smoke and tobacco. Less than medium tannin here. I'd love to serve this with canapes, and I think the acidity here will pull out new flavors when paired with different cheeses and pates. It's a year to the day that we toured some wineries in Burgundy and had a memorable dinner in Auxerre pairing local wines with the local cuisine. Escargots! Our nine and eleven year old girls also pushed their culinary limits that night and ordered adventurously off the board. Great memories.
