Mar 9th, 2018Young Beaujolais. Nice acid and good red fruits. Enjoyed with chicken liver salad, quail (new dish at Le Coq Rico), mushroom and spinach fricassee and chocolate profiteroles. Nice nose with a little funk that burned off to a pleasant funk after 15-20 minutes. Light body and pretty color. Worked really well with the livers, as the acidity balanced the fat / richness of the liver. Also worked well with the savory / saltiness of the quail, raised on the North Fork of Long Island in a progressively pastured methodology. Note: another good Louis/Dressner import.

Not AS light as a lot of Gamay but was at Buvette with Inez and Barb and Inez saw a woman wearing pink converse stilettos and said "turn around to see the ugliest shoes in the world!" And the girl DEFINITELY heard.
