No brett with this bottle as noted by other tasters. Nose is clean with typical herb, forest floor, mushroom, faint wild berry and minerals.
Palate shows sappy red cherry and raspberry notes lifted by generous acidity with plenty of herb/earth notes mid-stride. A surprise burst of red fruit emerges on the medium long finish that ends slightly drying.
Tannins are mostly integrated, but this wine is on the front end of its drinking window. There could be more to come and should certainly hold for another 5-10 years. Cru beaujolais can easily age/hold 10-15 years with the right maker.

Cherry and strawberry fruit, a bit flat, I'd drink these soon

Still quite fresh. Very elegant. Reminds me a lot of Foillard. Mid weight, quite intense red berry fruit palate . Lovely structure and a crisp finish.

Light color. Nice fruit. Drink chilled. Very nice quaff.
Didn’t get any of the brett others have noted.

Brett — at a high enough level that I just couldn’t drink it.
