January 18, 2022 - Double blind tasting
Pale ruby, unfiltered
Aromatics medium +. Raspberry, ripe cherry, mild candied note. No oak
Palate has medium body. Acid medium +. Tannins medium, fine grained. Alcohol medium +. Raspberry, ripe cherry again.
Finish has medium length, but balance is towards the alcohol.
I guessed cru beaujolais, but would have liked less alcohol.
Ready to drink now, but I'm not sure what aging more would yield1 person found this helpful Comments (2) -

December 24, 2021 - Pale ruby - unfiltered
Medium plus aromas of cherry/ dark florals and cotton candy confectionary tones
Medium minus bodied with cherry/ banana on the palate
Medium plus acidity with medium tannins and medium plus alcohol - rather high for a Beaujolais - medium length
I found this rather lacking in character, especially for the price I paid - 1-2 points taken off for QPR -

May 2, 2021 - First of a case. Cant remember what specifically prompted me to get these.
Nose of high toned cranberry and pomegranate followed by some sweet ripe banana. Definitely some carbonic maceration going on.
Palate: bright raspberry and red currant. Initially the carbonic banana note but with air and time puts on some weight and pleasing minerality kicks in.
Overall a pretty light crowd pleasing Beaujolais, above a village level but not on the same level as top cru producers.
Will be nice to have in the summer slightly chilled
