At first a bit tight, acidic, but really opened up - we did not decant it, but it really needed a decant - last sip much superior to the first. Still quite primary, if I had more I wouldn't hesitate to hold them for 5-10 years more.

Still drinking OK. Nice Cru B., that fits that lighter red wine category when the food calls for something that goes with everything... like Thanksgiving dinner!

Strawberries and a bit of musk on nose - attractive. Full mouth feel, with tannin providing a bit of texture. Strawberry and cherry flavours - pure fruit. Good length.

Deep ruby red color. Intense aroma of red currants and raspberries with subtle warming spices. Juicy and med/full-bodied with a round shape and hints of tannin. Long finish with fantastic acidity and mild gaminess. Harmonious.

Really enjoyed this Cru Beaujolais. Excellent fruit/acid balance and cherry, raspberry, blueberry flavor. with some nuance and depth.
