  Very nice nose of dark flowers, mint, and wet leaves, alongside crunchy, wild red berries. Great concentration and balance on the palette, with a wonderful tingly spiciness. Really nice and extraordinary value

  Medium garnet color with discoloration on edges. Aromas of plums, cherry, sweet spices. Medium body, juicy acidity, lung finish, supple tannins. Taste of red cherry, cranberry, plums, dark chocolate.

  Jadot makes their Beaujolais in a Burgundian fashion and it shows. Quite serious with elegant red fruit rather than juicy, crunchy fruit like the fun, glouglou wines. Lingering and saline finish, no sign of the excessive heat or dark fruit shown in the warmer vintages. Definitely on the Pinot rather than the Syrah end of the spectrum for Gamay.

  Dark, borderline opaque ruby, transparent only at the rims. The nose alternates red and black currant, menthol, hints of licorice, coffee—and definitely a small lift of VA. Succulent palate of juicy sour cherries and plums, immediately gaining volume together with spiciness. Most remarkable is the combination of this initial juicy succulence with a dry, austere, long finish, with a pronounced tannic grip. As often with sufficiently aged cru Beaujolais, this compares naturally to Pinot, but the razor-sharp focus, tension, and fruit profile could suggest something slightly different. Excellent now after substantial decanting, likely better after another couple of years.

  Absolutely stunning. Beaujolais at it's best. So fragrant, lovely and moreish. Get it while you can.
