Community Tasting Notes 4

  April 7, 2024 - 13.5% alcohol. Long cork of vg quality. The colour is medium, certainly quite dark for Gamay.
  The nose is more dark than red fruited, but nothing cooked, and there is a vivacious note too; no perception of oak either. The mouth has excellent acidity and it is more red fruited than what the nose would lead you to expect.
  While this is a good wine, it is lacking depth. In vg condition though, so there is scope for improvement, maybe...
  Not really a success on this occasion, but perhaps I have been spoiled by the superlative bottles that I had in the last two days.

  August 8, 2017 - Similar to previous bottle, this drinks a bit richer than one might expect. Medium to dark ruby, with a nice nose that is earthy, floral, fruity and spicy. Fairly rich mouth feel with a moderate degree of acidity and low to moderate tannin. Mostly red ripe fruits and minerals and quite elegant on the palate. Nice moderately long finish. Good QPR.

  March 28, 2017 - Berkeley Wines-Bernardsville and Kobrand Sponsored Dinner with Domaine Ferret winemaker Audrey Braccini (Osteria Morini NJ in Bernardsville, NJ): Medium to dark ruby color. Nose is earthy, spicy, floral - Magnolia flower and mineral laden. Good complexity and depth of flavor in a feminine sort of way. Controlled and balanced, spicy finish after stoney, flinty, tart fruit and a touch of chocolate. Great food pairing with roasted wood pigeon.
