Tasted blind. A simple wine with mixed berry fruit flavors, slightly candy-ish, and light hints of violets and gaminess. Solid but not special. I guess it is Beaujolais, 4 years old. Rating: 89

Reminiscent of village NSG. Med ruby red. Lovely bouquet of red & dark fruit, underbrush & earth. Palate is resolved & caressing with balance & elegance. Further delivers red & dark fruit, earth, spice & faint herbs. Don't see this improving but its very nice right now with 2-1/2 hrs slow -oxed in 2 Riedel Burgs & btl leading up to dinner. Served slightly cool around 58-60 degrees. 12.5% alc. Killer for just $21 on release locally. Kermit lynch importer.

Very good older Beaujolais. Lightish color, fruity nose - bubble gum, chalk, violets. Still doing well at day 3. Good now, but will last for several more years.

Almost 10 years old and still seems lively with some smooth edges.

Fresh, bitter, zesty, medium-bodied strawberry fruit, very good structure, ample acidity, short finish
