Wonderful, snappy acidity with crisp bitter cherry flavors. Really enjoyable with fatty food as it cuts through and provides counterpoint. We had with hamburgers and it was excellent. I wish I had more of this. It will last for a few more years.

Medium red color. Aromas of sour and red cherries. Ripe high acid fruit in the mouth with very good depth and length. Nicely juicy, complex and long on the palate for a Beaujolais. A lovely match with my wife’s delicious roast chicken.

Tighter and sharper than last bottle in January. Crunchy crisp red fruit with searing acidity. Good, but probably needs more time to mellow. Not sure how long that is, but I will wait a couple more years to drink this one. Definitely needs rich food.

Bright, crunchy, crisp red fruits and lively acids. Not as attractive on its own but good with rich food. I agree with the taster who said it would be great with udon - I can see how this would really work well. I gave them it a 30 minute decant which I recommend.

Nice strawberry and bright red fruits on the nose. Leather and some earth on palate. Nice acidity. Slightly short finish
