Le meilleur Chiroubles bû depuis belle lurette d'un millésime pourtant difficile! Il est concentré et pas délicat (mince) comme trop de vins de cette appellation. Il tiendra même la route encore un an ou deux sans problème.

I love it, very open and fruity, not a "serious" Cru Beaujolais, just an open faced, sunny yet deeply fruited wine. The fruits are on the darker side, but the palate is fresh and open. Lowish acidity but juicy and balanced. I reallly like this one a lot.

Nice just not great. On the nose it smells of Chiroubles, a certain etherial-ness that seems to characterize the high elevation appellation but on the palate its a little flat, hollow and monochromatic.
For the price (around $14) its not bad for a Cru Beaujolais but like I said, its nice just not great.

Idem à la dernière bouteille. Dommage, c'était superbe...

Very solid, a few points off for a slightly alcoholic nose. Nice acidity and minerallity.

Rond en bouche, arôme de fruits rouges et goût de queues de cerises. Tout en rondeur et en fruits. Belle robe dense. Bravo...
