n: gently increasing intensity- violets, fresh ripe black cherry, drop of dr pepper p: bold, high acid, cherry not at the forefront unlike the nose. The smoothish tannins and ripe finish show that this is decent quality fruit for a burgogne level mass production

Color is deep but vibrant ruby. The wine is dry, acid is high, tannins are low, soft but present. The wines salinity is medium. Alcohol is medium. Body is medium. Finish is medium.
On the nose, slightly unripe and tart red fruits. I get tart cherries, tart raspberries, blackberries and bramble.
On the palate the wine is crisp but smooth with a soft tannic finish. I get tart cherries and raspberries, french oak, and candied strawberries.
Subjective thoughts: The wine's acidity was off putting for the first glass, but It grew on me as I drank more.
This wines shows not in similar to the Louis Jadot Gamay and I think it is similar enough that you're better off going for that instead. It's cheaper and very good.

2019 is pretty thin compared to theater years. It does carry the typical bouquet and flavors comparable to the previous vintages, but the 2019 feels diluted. sadly, not so lovely :(

Picked up at the local grocer for $27. Deep color. On decanting, there is a noticeable sweet almond perfume. Closer to the rim, it's plums, red fruit, and stems. On the palate. this doesn't taste at all Burgundy and could easily be a very good California pinot. While it loses its sense of place, it's also more approachable than a young burgundy.
