  Correct mais pas plus avec un vin peu expressif et manquant de longueur. Très loin du plaisir pris avec 16 et 17, peut-être une mauvaise phase mais en l'état c'était pas génial.

  Deep dark red color. Good nose suffused with red fruit, herb and mineral. Bold fruit moderated by Beaujolais greenness and mineral, along with noticable tannin. The last bottle I simply noted as "very 2015" or some such. This one was surprisingly spot on and as good as anything I've had from this vintage. Excellent.

  Dark nose of dark berry fruit (blackberry in particular, some blackcurrant), some wild briary undergowth, perhaps some cocoa, intense and concentrated, a little meaty (like salami). More like a Rhone Syrah than a Beaujolais, but enjoyable anyway

  Cru Beaujolais Tasting - Exploring all the Crus (New York, NY): #18 of 21 wines tasted. The 2nd of the Cote de Brouilly selections. The color is quite dark, on the palate very bright, tart fruit - fresh tasting and would be better with food. Not a lot of complexity yet, but may improve with a couple years of cellar time. The group voted 0 pennies for this wine.

  Sorry, didn't take notes or even mental ones when drinking this. Remember liking it and thinking it fit into the 2015 Beaujolais profile.
