Toujours très beau (voir note 2022), teinte rubis incandescente, nez vivant, floral, nature, impétueux mais séducteur : que d’énergie! Bouche svelte, profonde et fraîche, juste ponctuée par une chaleur excessive, ce qui ne l’empêche pas de rester digeste et fluide. Morgon atypique, vibrant, loin des standards confits/kirschés !

Let me preface this by saying after trying this and a metras previously, I don’t think gamay is my personal preference. There is an initial punch of smokiness and acid, as well as a not desirable bitterness (this is not describing tannins). The finish is incredibly smooth and structurally it is sound, but I just don’t think gamay is my grape. I still for some reason think a jadot beaujolais villages is the most quaffable and top qpr wine.

Nose is cherry raspberry and some flinty reduction. More of that pencil shavings on the body, good ripe cherry rhubarb, enough acid to balance but not high acid. Whisper of tannin. Way better than my first bottle last year, I’m guessing this will get better for at least a few years.

Superbe couleur rubis éclatante, trouble et reflets brillants: petit gamay nature des familles en vue! Au nez, on y est: cerise, fleurs, épices, que c’est joli! En bouche la gourmandise est de rigueur, l’attaque est souple, les tanins fins, il y a seulement cette petite chaleur (14°) qui persiste (je l’ai moins sentie qu’il y a 2 ans..) et qui n’entache pas l’élégance générale. Joli morgon féminin 👏
