April 5, 2024 - Pop and pour, drank half the bottle over 2 hours, with pork roast and without. Clearly better with food, as the high-toned tart fruit and acidity make this seem like a food wine. But I still appreciated it by itself, as there is high complexity including damp earth, berries, crunchy cherry and barnyard funk. I have one left and wish I had more.

June 11, 2023 - This is a pretty good every day wine. Needs to open up a bit and should be opened at least a hour before drinking. Decent fruit nose with some underbrush note. Very smooth with mainly cherry on the palate and an interesting finish expressing additional complexity. A nice wine but not in the 90+ range.
Has improved on day 2; upped the score. Nose is still the same but stronger. Potent red fruit with solid body, acidity and complex edges. Finish is tight and hinting at pencil lead. -

April 14, 2023 - This keeps getting better. I see why these cru Beaujolais should be cellared for 5 - 8 years. After opening, evolved showing Burgundian barnyard funk and grace.

July 9, 2022 - Pop and pour, drank 2 glasses over 2 hours. The nose is a great mix of earth, berries and underbrush. The palate is vibrant and high-toned. I struggle a bit with cru Beaujolais, but there's no denying the complexity here.
