Juicy dark fruit and just enough earth to round it ... out perfect for a casual after work meal of takeout 😋😋

100% Gamay. More like Chenas or Moulin-a-Vent, though slightly lighter bodied. Pretty label.

Dense, brooding nose. Dark forest fruits, cherry, earth. Light as a feather on the palette with a fucking huge length. Clear, crystalline, drinkable as fuck. Delicious juice.

Pretty cherry and orange blossom. Juice upfront that pleasantly lingers. Impressive Gamay offering from Cali.

Lovely. Cranberry, blood orange, pretty acid and a surprising amount of body. Maybe a little mezcal-esque smoke on the finish? A beautiful, unique, satisfying bottle.

Light wine! Light in color, light in ABV (11.5!), light in flavors (in a good way). Red berry, chery, a hint of dirt, wild flowers. Save it for the summer - heck, chill it a bit even! OK, I love the stuff they are doing at Jolie Laide - not afraid to make a wine with this low an ABV. And love the labels, of course. 9.2
