In a great place. Singing nose. Florals. Ripe cherries. Spice. So stunning. Wow. What intensity and complexity while remaining ephemeral. Stunning stunning nose. Just superb. Oh my god. 9.6 on the nose. Amazing fruit intensity and purity. Structured and tensile but soft and generous. So clean and a slippery silky palate with loads of sweet Gamay fruit. Needs some air but wow is this special.

Classic Beaujolais. Cloudy and microbiologally active, however. Brettanomyces beginning to dominate. Drink up.

Give it a bit of air then you're rewarded with terroir, fun, & funk.

One of my favorite Beaujolais. Deep fruit (all types of berries), earth, bright acid. Near perfect.

Absolutely essential drinking. Needed to treat myself at the end of a horrendous week. This silky soother did the trick.
