Beaujolais Cru tasting (Wine-Route, Tel-Aviv): transparent dark brown pastry nose with salted fish notes lean structured, pleasant fruitiness, medium balance & harmony, soft firm integrated tannins, bitter dark red fruits finish & aftertaste

Bright, lively medium red to the eye. Primarily cherries to the nose, secondary berries and dried fruit with undertones of black pepper and mushrooms. Lean body and firm texture to the mouth with long aromatic finish. Terror based, muscular wine. Perfectly cellared, 40% of cork remaining. Overall, an elegant wine characteristic of Beaujolais. Drink now or loose the bottle!

Maybe a little past its prime. Fruit has faded somewhat. Drink up if you have them. Be sure to pair with cheese and/or meat. This is definitely a food wine not a sipping wine.

Gevrey like meat, lots of complexity, drinking great now. A lot of bottle variability but this one was most enjoyable - not the best of the pack but very good. Very strong secondary wine.

So much bottle variability. This was not corked, but not great.
