May 13, 2021 - Natural wine without sulfites. Reductive nose of pickle, fermented apples, barnyard. Earth, mushrooms, marinade, cranberries.

January 2, 2021 - Not sure if this was a flawed bottle so not going to rate it. On opening, lots of funk. After a couple minutes, it settled into VA. I wouldn't have called Beaujolais if blinded on this - I'd likely call Jura if guessing my friends' cellars or even a domestic natty producer. Completely unlike the 2015 Fleurie and Moulin-a-Vent I recently had of theirs.

August 11, 2020 - Wow - crazy color. The nose is superb! Fred fruit and spices for days... The taste is huge but clearly too young. A spicy and warm “bump” on the finish makes the taste appear a little out of balance. Still a very good wine which I will happily recommend to every fan of Beaujolais...
