On opening, sweet wild strawberry, just short of confected.
Within 15 minutes in the glass the unsubtle up front summer fruit bomb aspect subsided and it relaxed into a pleasing well-rounded, simple, creamy Gamay.
This will be great fun lightly chilled next summer. 85/86
Edit: Next day developed darker toned fruit and a little more depth over all; 87/88. Maybe another year or two in the bottle will add something but I'm not sure I'd bother waiting.

yup, one year later it has improved and probably deserves a point or two more.
Typical decent Fleurie.

Silky, bright, and grippy. No bubblegum. A treat for the price.
