This was a really good bottle of wine. We had it with a lentil stew and it was a great pairing. Get nose with berries and earth. We felt it got better as it sat for about 45-60 minutes. Lots of dark berries and that great earthy flavor which matched the food. Wish I had more!

Not necessarily a pop and pour, but can be. First day drinking was very fresh, with bright herbal notes of tomato vine and bay leaf, like spring in California put in a bottle. Third day drinking this mellowed and had the warmth and integration I expect of a daily drinking Bougeoulais. Interesting, and quite good QPR.

Lovely berry beaujolais aroma, crust of smoke and hint of heath. Very smooth balance of acid and fruit on the palate. Good with Sri Lankan chicken curry. 50 + 16 + 15 + 8.

One of our favorite Beaujolais...definitely a very pleasant surprise! PnP and had the first glass through a Vinturi almost immediately...maybe 5-10 min wait at most...

Fabulously fresh. Cherry, cola, blueberries, lots of minerals making this crisp without sacrificing full flavor. Feels like a cousin of an Oregon or Washington Pinot.
