January 10, 2022 - Beautiful cherry, raspberry, and touches of plum. Snappy acidity, medium bodied, and complex finish. This shows no sign of decline, but is drinking so well right now that you shouldn't miss it.

November 29, 2020 - I liked the wine but did not have the fruit I expected. Had some cherries and earth. I gave it time but it never came around. May need more time in the bottle but unsure.

January 26, 2019 - This was the best beaujolais I've ever had. Light on its feet but simultaneously deep and complex. Drank over three nights, and while the second night was best, all three were strong. Wish I had a lot more of this!
