August 10, 2017 - Fairly consistent with previous note. This bottle fairly volatile as well, though I'm missing the fruit and the bite in the tannins. Enjoyable still of course, but losing its allure.

March 11, 2017 - Still liking this (fifth bottle), but the fruit is waning now. Tannins, acidity and spice is still there, the wine is vibrant, length impressive, but I'm missing those ripe cherries. It's a good example of a Bojo Cru with some age but should also be a telling sign for those of you that still have these in your cellars.

December 30, 2016 - Excellent Beaujolais. 12.7% alc.
Colour: rich deep red berries
Bouquet: ripe red berries and plums, spices edge,
Palate: as bouquet, mineral characters, sour cherries, quite substantial velvety fruit, with spicey overtones, full body, long clean finish with cleansing acid. Perfect timing to drink this wine as it has developed a little but lost no fruit character.

March 25, 2016 - Le nez me fait penser aux petites fraises en bonbon de mon enfance. En bouche, la fraise est très présente et, après quelques heures, on perçoit aussi des arômes de chocolat et de noisettes qui amènent un côté très mûr au vin, me rappelant un peu le grenache des vins rhodaniens. Très agréable maintenant, il me semble que ce vin peut encore vieillir. Pour les besoins de la science, je vais attendre quelque temps avant d’ouvrir ma dernière bouteille!
