March 29, 2024 - Extremely youthful and showing no signs of age, with plums, cranberries, fresh violets, roobios tea and baked walnuts. Concentrated and medium in length, with a full body. Agile tannins and a lively acidity. Drink now - 2032.

February 5, 2022 - Juicy, sappy red and blue fruits carry the front and mid palate with a bit of earth and spice. But what really seems to stand out are the luscious tannins on the finish that go on and on. Not heavy or overbearing just right.

October 31, 2020 - Deeper, darker Beaujolais. Very aromatic with red fruits, pepper and flowers. Palate follows nose but may even leans to dark red fruit sneaky tannins leans heavy but are still in balance.

March 24, 2020 - Drank after an approximately four hour decant. Lafarge-Vial makes their wine without carbonic maceration so this drinks more like a Burgundy than a beujolais. A little reserved on the nose with mixed red fruit/blue fruit and some sous bois. A red fruited beauty on the palate with a light, silky mouthfeel, refreshing acidity,a and beautiful finish. Great wine. Could age longer.
