This wine is made in a Cru Beaujolais style. So you can't expect a crazy amount of tannins due to this style being aged in a stainless tank. Due to carbonic maceration, I find this wine with an overwhelming amount of strawberry on the nose. A lot of bright red fruit on the palate such as black cherry, Raspberry, a slightly underripe plum. It is wonderful chilled on a hot summer day.

Sweet tart taste and thin. Not worth 28 dollars. Still a new wine to me.

Not mind blowing but flavorful. Berry and cherry come through, with a bit of spice and oak. Great balance and delicacy.

Slightly chilled makes for more of a strawberry jam flavor. Aged makes it more earthy. Made with a carbonic masceration process - dry ice makes fermentation start from inside of the grape. Good red summer wine.
