Interesting. Some age on it now and a lovely amber color. Rich and oxidative. Not where my tastes have evolved but really quite good. — 2 years ago

2006 vintage. Garnet color, some primary fruit (red cherry, black cherry, plum), but now showing lots of tertiary notes (leather, tobacco, dried herbs, dried fig, prune). 14.5% alcohol, medium acidity, full body. 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre. — 6 months ago

Columbia County 2.0: interesting drinking this day after a German Pinot, as I found them surprisingly related. A fave Beaujo producer’s Morgon, also a cooler tone & elegant. Blackberries & cassis, darker berries and a fine grittiness to integrated tannins. I like this drinking window (6 yrs) but imagine several if not more left. — a year ago
I was curious about longevity of this wine. Popped and poured and just delicious. — 4 years ago

Cherry, raspberry, that Cola touch that I like in great Beaujolais, hay, an earthy thing too. Wow this is very inviting. The palate is very well made. Strong acid backbone, cherry and raspberry all along, very wide and spherical mid palate that powers up a very long fruity finish that goes on for a a very long time. Gosh I love great crus Beaujolais made like this. — 8 months ago

A lot going on the nose. Red fruit, black fruit, meat, leather. Would be a good wintertime wine. Too bad they’re sold out at Kermit Lynch. Devin gave it 💯 — 4 years ago
$45 bottle; was much lighter than other CdP, more like a Pinot. — 5 years ago
