Incredible how this feels young even at 18 yrs of age. Nose and palate spectrum still very much on the fruit side, superbly balanced, all integrated with a very long and attractive finish. On the Medium bodied side. Maybe not as grand as I would have hoped on complexity and power side (but why was Inexpecting a 100 pointers really?).
Clearly feels like a privilege to taste such a wine and this confirm great Beaujolais deserve cellaring time. Still has years of development and enjoyment ahead.

Might be the best wine I've had from Beaujolais. Deep, complex, and tasting with the right amount of time on it. I love the regular Fleurie from him on cooler vintages as well.

Needs more time. Animal at the beginning, with air improves, and the fruit comes out. Very young on the palate, excellent acidity, fresh and long. I loved it.
