2018 Union Vignerons de Saint Pourçain Saint Pourçain La Réserve Spéciale Rouge

2/11/2022 - DrDave88 Likes this wine: NR

Something slightly earthy on the nose, not much fruit, just out of drinking window according to TWS. Dried/stewed fruit maybe. Juicy and fresh palate, red fruits, cherries, raspberries?, nice acidity to freshen finish. No real tannin to speak of. Wants to be lightly chilled, pleasantly quaffable for £7

Stelvin closure. Ruby with a tending towards brick. Clear rim is abnormally wide - filtration by numbers? I would suggest 45 Nm at least! Nose is very light strawberry if anything. Palate is a nice red fruit bomb with a decent finish albeit a rather chalky abrupt end. It’s ok, it’s cheap - that’s life!

Wow, bit of a character this one.

Funky but fresh and creamy Gamay nose.
Palate is raspberry/red cherry but with a dark and juicy blackcurrant core; finishes with a touch of spice. A sort of classy rustic table wine.

£7.95 from the Wine Society. Gamay & Pinot Noir. 13.5%

Recommend.

At 24 hours; the creamy red berry quality of the Gamay had gone but the savoury Pinot darker fruit core held up well.

At 48 hours; still drinkable but like an unremarkable generic low/medium bodied blended red with a little of the juicy core still hanging around.

Needs the summer. Sour cherry and acidity come through a bit more out of that context.

I think this is excellent value for money. Has a pinot noir mustiness and that classic savoury character you expect from good Pinot Noir. Served at around 16C it was singing. Slipped down far too quickly!

Our current house red and seems to be improving. Great value quaffer, bright red fruits with some raspberry depth.

Blend of Gamay and Pinot Noir, the latter gives it a nice perfumed lift, violets and red fruit. Quite light, but nice quaffing wine for garden drinking. Best on first opening as it becomes a little diffuse in glass. For the price a decent house red.

Very good, excellent quaffer at family barbecue for christmas, slightly chilled.
Colour: dense red berries
Bouquet: red berries and spice
Palate: quite full bodied, good balance between soft tannins and acid for longish finish, raspberries and very spicey.

Definitely more gamay than PN here. An acceptable summer quaffer but no more than that.

This is a killer vin de soif made of gamay and pinot noir. The wine is light in both colour and body. Nose shows raspberry and bramble fruit with a savoury note of blackberry leaf. The palate is soft and dry with raspberry nuances. This would be perfect barbecue fodder on a hot day. Drinks well lightly chilled.

Fresh, bright, simple red berries, with an energetic mineral presence on the palate. Very good value, this would make an ideal house red for drinking without food or as a versatile match for light meals. Paired successfully with rainbow trout, roasted garlic fattoush, and mint tzatziki, which says a lot.

Dark cherry aromas followed by a rugged and firmly structured palate. Still showing good fruit but acid and tannins dominate and aren't in perfect balance. Prob better a year or two ago.
