Even more delightful than my last bottle. Medium/light in body its aromas and fruit live well up to its name though perhaps slightly sweeter than griotte cherries straight off the tree. There are fine minerals, moreish acidity, gently tangy backbone and lingering aromas as well. IMO this is at present much better drinking than the Brouilly and Fleurie '16s which I bought at the same time, which are still a bit severe. We couldn't stop ourselves from finishing the bottle but at 12.5% alcohol only that is not a disaster. Very good.

P&p. Fresh, sappy aroma like fresh berries muddled with their seeds, along with that typical sort of rubbery note. Similar flavors, fresh and juicy, cranberry-like, tasty, with good acidity, and some moderate tannic grip. Just what one hopes for in a basic level Beaujolais. Fresh, fun, good value.

Bu lors du souper Filets de porc aux pommes caramélisées et patates confites aux herbes de Provences avec Sylvie et Carol. Vin sympa, léger, simple et gouleyant...un vrai petit vin de soif. Pour le prix c`est bien.

Un classique pour moi. Encore savoureux dans ce millésime. Plein de fruit, frais, désaltérant. Du bonbon pour adultes!

Belle matière et concentration.
