Slightly bricking. Raspberry, strawberry licorice, prune, smoke, earth, black pepper, violet, and just a touch of green bean. Nice repeat, but with cherry becoming prominent. Good body and smooth mouthfeel. Nice balance. Good length finish with raspberry, cherry, earth, and some tea.

This is a classic, pleasant, Cru Beaujolais - in this case from Moulin-a-Vent.

Light in colour, though with some dark purple hues and not just bright red.

Lots of strawberry on the nose, cherry liqueur, white pepper, slight savoury. Medium body, slight hit of alcohol but overall well-balanced.

A most versatile food wine.

Tasted April 2015.
