Lovely texture and really gritty. Fine grained tannins, though. Great wine.

Tons of red fruit and floral notes on the nose. Very thick and luscious aromas. Really soft on the palate, with a great thick texture for Beaujolais. Lovely balanced fruit and acidity. Pretty tight at present, though. Opens up a but on the finish with more fruit on initial attack, but then the tannins take over. It's lovely, but still quite primary. I'll probably still wait 5+ years to dig into mine.
