First time with this producer, a very positive surprise. Absolutely in line with the last reviews, a great, picture book Bojo. Still a bargain at around 20 EUR, 92+.

2nd bottle from a 6 pack, last had a bottle about a year prior. This Fleurie shows off bright and crunchy red and blue fruit, with some stems, a hint of anise, and some cooking spices. The tannins are getting grittier on day 2, and the acidity keeps nice tension on the palate. The finish is medium in length, with berry fruit and spice. Drink through 2028+.

Had this after being disappointed by a bottle of the '20 recently. Textbook Beaujolais--clean red fruits, bright acidity, with a lovely sappy texture. Still singing on night (after being capped and put in the fridge). Maybe the extra year helps, or maybe '19 is just more my profile for a vintage (very early tastings of 19/20 burg and bojo seem to bear this out), but this hit the spot for me. Glad to have more.

Strawberry and menthol on the nose. On the palate, black cherry, strawberry, and notes of rose petal and orange peel on the medium to long finish, with light tannins and strong acidity; it's pretty rather than powerful. This was an excellent value at about $30.

Pop and pour. Starts out a little bit reticent, but with thirty minutes it blossoms. Crisp red fruit, floral (yeah, I know) and some warm herbal tones come through, and are backed up by a little bit of finishing earthiness. The best part is the light but persistent texture. Never any trace of heaviness, but it also sustains on the palate. Fantastic showing for this wine, and a good reminder for me to step beyond my Thivin/Roilette bubble.
