Interesting that some of the notes here refer to screw caps. My bottle brought back from France definitely under cork. Delicious, though will keep, and does taste of Gamay rather unlike the 2009 Grange Cochards (see notes) which seem both Burgundian and unready. 2009 Beaujolais really is for the long haul I think.

Absolutely humming under screwcap. Luscious berry and raspberry fruit is clean and inviting. There's some licorice and a little stalky plant matter. You get some black earth notes as well and just a hint of tart fruit punctuating the finish. So slurpy and gluggable.

(Pierre-Marie Chermette Brouilly Pierreux) Very dark ruby color; nice, tart cherry, black raspberry nose; juicy, poised, tart black cherry, tart black raspberry palate; medium-plus finish (this wine seems to vary a lot by bottle--some have been more bretty--due to the low sulfur levels; glad I got a good one this time)
(Pierre-Marie Chermette Brouilly Pierreux) Purple red violet color; deep, tart berry, candied red fruit, ripe berry nose; silky textured, ripe berry, cinnamon, candied red fruit palate; needs 1-2 years, should go 7-8; medium-plus finish 88+ points (most old fashioned in style of our lineup; from a 1.5 hectare plot of 40-year-old vines; semi carbonic maceration; minimal added sulfur dioxide; aged mostly in foudre)
