Deeply pigmented - energetic fresh fruit - clean - balanced stuffing, tartness, and tannic structure - vivacity persists on palate - bravo

Popped and poured. Medium ruby color. Nose of red plum, black cherry, a bit of herbs du Provence, violet and pepper. Very fresh smelling. Similar flavors on the palate with a lightness and juiciness but with some definite underlying savory flavors of herbs and flowers. Medium+ acidity, medium tannin and body. Definitely more of a food wine than a sipping wine but this is very versatile and my favorite vintage of this wine by far.

Black and red cherries, with a little black licorice and thin mint cookie on the nose
Surprising blood orange and less surprising cherry juice flavors with back throat bite on the finish.
Very interesting and unusual but highly acidic. Perhaps reminiscent of a lightly ripe spatburgunder, but that's Gamay's character.
A red for fish, poultry or pork.

Delicious: apple skin, stone fruit (apricot), and more. Bright, zesty, prickly bubbles, with zingy-acid. Presents as dry and alpine. Gorgeous light pink hue.

Others seem to indicate they got this for a considerably lower price than can be found on the west coast of the US. If this were $25 this would be a rebuy for sure; at close to $40 not so much.

I have had previous vintages of this that I have enjoyed more. This was all acid and herbal flavors without sufficient fruit to carry it. Definitely more of a food wine than a sipper.

Smells like it's going to have some residual sugar with banana and delicate red fruit aromas. Clean, soft palate with small bubbles. Very enjoyable and excellent at $24

after I liked a lot the Jaquere, the Altesse was not 100% on my taste.
Was a bit oily, more rich, lacking a bit of acidity...so did not pair very good with the Mont d'Or cheese.. or mayb this is how the Altesse grape is...on the rich side.

En-Primeur campaign for the 2021 vintage; 4/25/2022-4/29/2022 (Bordeaux): Smells waxy, with time slight flint, herbaceous notes, lime, green apple and a little creamy but this has quite low intensity aromas. On the palate it’s super fresh, sharply acidic, grassy, minimal sulphur, lime, and unripe green apple, wetly juicy, tangy, long, okay, begs oysters.

Medium salmon. Medium intensity nose- baked apple, brown banana peel, candied ginger, vanilla yoghurt, overripe fermenting peach, lavender, cinnamon. Off-dry, medium acid, medium body, low alcohol, delicate mousse. Medium intensity palate. Baked apple, pie crust, lemon curd, lightly charred balsa wood. Medium finish. Very unusual and yet evocative of so many super specific aromas and flavors. All combined, it could be an apple pie baked in paper with an open top covered in lemon custard/curd. Very good.

Gamay / Mondeuse from Savoie. Had one of their whites some time back, wanted to try their reds, quite glad I did. This is brilliant. Fleshy, juicy, really nicely extracted with great mouth presence . Despite the fruity density this has a lively core. Gamay fruit on the attack and Mondeuse spice on the finish. Complex and long. Just really gratifying and easy to like. The fruit / spice / weight / vibrancy balance here is special. Electric. Love it.

I can see this wine not being for everyone but I enjoyed it, certainly more than the 2017 vintage. Medium purple color. Nose is mostly tart cranberry and pomegranate with some herbs mixed in. Very fresh smelling, almost a little grapey. Medium body and tannin but lots of acidity. Definitely more of a food wine than a sipping wine. Served slightly chilled.

Quite nice, super clean and pure. White flowers, yellow apple, quince on the palate and a mineral finish. Needed a little time to flesh out. Good value, I’ll be picking up a few more.

decided to open this to make room in the cellar based on the large number of negative reviews i’ve seen here about these wines. don’t know if there are flaws or just different palates, but this stuff was great. medium density purple pour. pepper, ripe red plum, fresh berries, violets, and granite on the nose. light bodied, freshly acidic, smooth, and rounded. plenty of sweet berry and plum fruit with a cleansing mineral streak. mild dry tannin at the back. excellent and profile typical of mondeuse. will age well.

Gorgeous dark ruby. Light nose of plums, branches split. Fresh and really alive. Slight amari note. Good depth. A bit of resin and then juicy sap. Some green fruit (not unripe.) Light body, smooth and complex. Very glou. Loved this.

Deep purple. Lots of florals on the nose, dark berries and some lingering funk. Lighter body with a bit of grip. Not great QPR for a weeknight dinner wine but also not incurious about more recent vintages.

One of the weaker wines received from Viticole. Very thin. Barely any fruit and what was there was tart and earthy. I usually enjoy light 12% reds but this just didn't have the right flavors to pull it off. Not a fan.
