Not drinkable. Metallic, dirty, little gamay character, tastes like it had contact with unclean wood. Either a horrible wine, or a damaged bottle, or this fell apart very quickly after bottling. Not scored.

Upon opening, this had such a strong iron finish, i almost gave up on it. 45 minutes later, the iron blew off but this bottle never found the "wow" zone for me. I found the nose muted with a blueberry and strawberry - metallic finish. I am a big fan of 09' beaujolais, but this totally underwhelmed me. In my opinion, wines from Morgon are just light years ahead of the other regions. Every time I experiment outside this region ,I am let down.

Notes of mint, menthol, and peppermint. Blueberries, strawberries, and sweet cotton candy as well. Entirely pleasant for sure. Light, refreshing, and the perfect wine to sip while taking a long relaxing bath, listening to classical music, and reading. A bit of fresh clover on the nose, but lots of strawberry on the front of the palate for sure. A hint of spice at the end that is probably due to the wine being quite young. Nice finish as well. Great for what it is.

Very fragrant nose. Light to medium bodied. Spicy, red fruits palate with a noticeable tannic bite. Short length.
