Quite aromatically expressive once given a 30+ min decant, after which aromas of pomegranate, violet & lavender come through along with an earthy undercurrent. The palate is supremely well balanced with flavors of blueberries, red currants, with a bite of black pepper on the finish. Overall a lovely cru Beaujolais, which keeps luring you back for one more sip. It proved an excellent, albeit untraditional, pairing with jalapeño & queso fresco turkey burgers! ($33) [1/9/22]

I finally stumble upon excellent Beaujolais from 2018, a year without much excitement. The intensity of Grain and Granit is dialed up luring dark cherry into a familiar raspberry core. Deep, far reaching aromatics - fruit and spice. Lots of spice and Palo Santo wood. Rich concentrated flavors ranging from fruity to meaty to iron-rich mineral. Yum.

🌷 😍 Here’s a beautiful, bright, biodynamically-produced Beaujolais Cru from Régnié. 🍇 This wine is youthful and fresh. It has a lot of food-pairing potential. 🍗 It’s a lovely spring sipper.
👁 It is a medium ruby wine with pink rim variation and noticeable haze.
👃 On the nose, this wine has a medium(+) intensity of youthful aromas. Aromas include primary notes of fresh, ripe cherry, kirsch, strawberry preserves, rhubarb, violet, bubblegum, cinnamon, wet leaves, and wet stone.
👄 On the palate this wine is dry. It has medium(+) acidity, a medium body, medium alcohol, medium(-) tannins, and a medium intensity in flavor notes. Flavors are mostly consistent with the nose but with more tart fruit characteristics. The finish is medium.

From the son of Jean-Paul - rustic, murky, unfiltered. Mint tobacco, rosemary, cedar, cherry lozenges. Soft texture with vibrant concentration.

Dark fruited aromatics, very rich & deep. The palate follows, but adds more red berry character as it opens up A bit more structured than the Breton Regnie enjoyed a few nights ago. This needs a little air, but is quite generous.
