Community Tasting Notes 2

  December 19, 2018 - Lackluster, without joy or crunchy juiciness that I look for in cru bojo. Insipid, it somehow grew on me over the evening, which may have had much to do with the low alcohol content. However, if people are buying this for $13, it’s a good deal because it is clearly not manufactured or adulterated grape juice for the masses. My bottle was closer to $19. A pass at that point, since rockstar stuff is only $1-2 away.

  April 29, 2018 - Excellent real wine.
  Translucent ruby from 76 year old vines.
  It took 30 minutes to fully express notes of cherry, raspberry, wet leaves, straw, dust, game, spice that left a fantastic finish. Excellent Gamay Noir.
  7.5/10
  I loved that once the juicy fruit splashed over my tongue there was earthy complexity with cured meats that ended in a spice that lingered and evolved.
  Drink now thru 2020. It opened up very quickly and it's sweet spot was about 1.5 hours.
