On its own this is young - tart, tannic and tight. With stuffed shells, a delicious counterpoint to the pasta and cheese. For me, this can use a few more years in the cellar. Taut black cherry, with acid and tannins, nice food wine this.

It's been over 5 years since the last note on this wine but most of what you read below still holds. Lots of acid, sour cherry and cranberry fruit and quite yummy. And still young. For me, Burgaud bojos are on the intense end of the spectrum. This is an almost ten year old Beaujolais Villages and I think it still needs more time. With luck, I hope to see what some of his Morgons are like at 20 years - have a ways to go to find out.

I'm now on bottle #2 of a case and if you want to know about this wine just read the comments below. Still a bit young for me but juicy, crunchy, fruity and a touch elegant? Yes, seems like it could match up with nearly any meal. Clicked on where to buy, cellartracker now has suggestions prior to sending you to wine searcher. It sent me to where I purchased this and it's still available for $15!! If you have the means and this can be your house wine, look into it. Note, I think we purchased a half case of the 2018 and was not quite as enthusiastic about that wine.
