Very pretty, with pleasant floral notes, a slight undertone of funk, and a touch of effervescent tickle.

Dark ruby color. Much brighter and fruit forward than its Beaujolais cousin. Very attractive.

Slightly volatile at first, but quickly blew off. Crunchy red fruits, purple flowers, bright acid, med body 😜🤤

Has some of the similar spice qualities as the Cayenne from Balagny. This one was a bit more fresh. Very expressive with brighter red fruit (cranberries and raspberries). Smooth and easy drinking on the palate.

I know Métras is the hype but the style is just not my taste. I think there can be “too rustic” or “natural” and that it can get in the way of the wine.

This wine is what happens when a rebellious Gamay finally comes to its senses and grows up. Still has the fruit and funk of Gamay but has adopted some husky smoke and bite. A great drop for roasted seafood
