  Un beau Brouilly que j'avais oublié dans le cellier et dans mon inventaire.Une robe très foncée avec un nez plutôt timide.À la dégustation on perçoit des notes de terres humides,de canneberges et de framboises.C'est passablement long et très digeste.

  Robe brillante, d'un beau grenat. Le premier nez est une réminiscence de mon enfance lorsque ma mère préparait ses confitures de fraises et qu'elle en extrayait une écume sur le dessus du chaudron lors de la cuisson... Un nez de petits fruits rouges légèrement sucrés (fraise, framboise, canneberge), de fleurs sauvages, de terre humide et avec une touche épicée (poivre).
  
  En bouche, le vin est très gouleyant, l'acidité assez vive amène une belle fraîcheur et le fruit est très coulant. C'était ma dernière bouteille, mais ce vin était à point. Je crois que les 2014 et 2015 pourront être conservés un peu plus longtemps.

  Esteele90 is spot on here. Raspberry zinger indeed. Raspberry and floral notes all over the nose and palate. The '13 lacks both the depth and verve of the '14, which I had over Thanksgiving, but it's still a nice, pretty Beaujolais.

  Very light and refreshing fruit that has a purity to it that I love. Beautiful ruby red color with crystal clear clarity. There isn't much in the way of the nose, but it could have also been the turkey burger I was eating that overpowered it. To be certain, it is delicate. The palate however reminded me of one of my favorite teas. Raspberry Zinger!! The connection was instant. The tart raspberry, cranberry, and rosehip notes with the underlying chamomile and gentle tea-like tannins and and mild acidity really brought this together for me. Such an easy wine to drink as have all the 2013 Beaujolais' been so far!

  Super petit jus d'été, du coulis de fruits rouges pour satisfaire toutes les soifs. À ce prix j'aurais dû y aller avec la caisse !
