One of the favorites of the tasting. This 100% Grenache CDP (if my memories are good) that pinots surprisingly on red fruit notes, and olfactory referents that would lead us to Burgundy or some old Beaujolais crus (Brouilly 2006 by F. Aublanc): Potpourri, dried flowers etc. Acidity is full of promises for evolution and aging.

Un des coups de cœur de la dégustation. Ce CDP 100% (si mes souvenirs sont bons) qui pinote de manière surprenante sur des notes fruits rouges, et des référents olfactifs qui nous mènerait plus du côté de la Bourgogne voir certains vieux crus du Beaujolais (Brouilly 2006 de F. Aublanc): Pot-Pourri, fleurs séchées etc. L’acidité est pleine de promesse pour l’évolution et la garde. — 3 years ago

Delicious red fruit, fresh and almost mineral, good balance, delicious and great price too.

Comme toujours un beau rapport qualité prix, frais, fin, fruits rouges délicieux, acidité appuyée avec des tannins assez fins, bel ensemble, très bien. — 5 years ago

To finish an appetizer of Scallops with cauliflower milk. A very nice and gorgeous nose of red fruit, raspberries, strawberries, soft spices and a touch of red pepper, without this being the focal point. A soft, balanced and harmonious wine, not the most powerful Rougeard I drank, but elegant, classy and delicious. 91-92+

Superbe nez fin, délicat et assez complexe de Fruits rouges, framboises, fraises, épices douces et avec du poivron rouge aussi mais sans être trop végétal. Une bouche harmonieuse et équilibrée, en finesse et délicatesse surtout, avec une belle longueur. 91-92

@Delectable Wine This is a VDF from the Moselle in France. Winemaker is Remi Gauthier. This is 100% Pinot Noir. Slamming nose. Cherry cola, big big cherries, licorice, mineral and even ripe strawberry. Super aromatic and wonderful. Unique as well. So juicy and ripen with ample lip smacking mid season cherry fruit and wonderful acidity and freshness. Terrific purity and freshness. Impressive length and so so well made. — 7 years ago

Color is medium-red, oak barrel notes, but in nice balance to the red cherry aromas and flavors, nice acid, medium-long finish, very good Alsatian Pinot Noir, which I expect will go very well with our grilled Canadian wild sockeye salmon! — 3 years ago

A very unique wine. Needs time to open. Notes immediately of fresh raspberries then opens up more with notes of salt on tomato. — 5 years ago

Airy with lots of aromatic floral nuances and generous red/black fruits. 2018 is very opulent! The carbonic maceration which gives this English-sweet side characteristic of Beaujolais is here associated with an aging giving it a subtle Burgundy character which suggests a good aging potential over 3, 4 years. A sure value on Beaujolais.

Un Fleurie qui fait honneur à l’appellation. Aérien avec beaucoup de nuances aromatiques florales justement et du fruits rouges et noirs généreux. 2018 est très opulent! La macération carbonique qui donne ce côté bonbon-anglais caractéristique des beaujolais est ici associé à un élevage lui apportant un caractère bourguignon subtil qui laisse présager un beau potentiel de garde sur 3, 4 ans. Une valeur sur du Beaujolais. — 5 years ago

As with all wine, the food accompanying the wine influences your opinion. We all found this wine rather good tonight (casserole with barley, lamb & pork belly). A little too much alcohol warmth perhaps but ............. — 8 years ago

Manure. Leather. That old world funk, all up in my nose. I love it. Pair it with the deep, dry black fruit in the mouth, and I'm transported back to a quiet evening in Carcassonne. — 8 years ago

Great value for the price. Very fresh, crisp, dry wine with green apples and grapefruit notes. Pleasant acidity, not as „stingy” as usually Picpoul is. Perfect companion to simple spaghetti with olive oil, pizza with white sauce or any friend who just steps by to talk about summer vacations in the South of France. — 5 years ago

Goodness the value of a value Merlot based bottle of tastiness. Purpley it is. But it isn’t just purple drapes, there is a pot of hot spiced tea bubbling and someone is puffing a cigar just outside the window. Where are you looking to through this wine window? At your friends. Wearing purple masks but they are there for you. — 5 years ago
