Tart cherries, stewed fruits, oak, baking spices. Medium plus body and teetering on high acid. Medium tanins and medium plus finish. — 5 years ago
Sexy fucking wine. Sexy is overused but I’d get in a hastily planned 3 month relationship with this wine that would end in bitter heartbreak. Gorgeous nose. Flowers, big cherries, lipstick vibe. Palate is ripe and opulent with lovely sucrosity and wonderful freshness. Silky tannins and great mouthfeel. Very 15 but also very alluring. Long finish. Wonderful mineral drive and very complex. Great today. — 6 years ago

A nice Beaujolais from a vintage that I don’t usually love compared to 2014/2016. Definitely better with an hour or so in a decanter to let the tannins integrate a bit more. Dark purple in the glass - darker than expected. Nice cherry aromas. Still could resolve a bit more on the finish but with a slight chill is nice. — 5 years ago
A couple of years ago when Nova Scotia wines made their debut here at the wine festival, I tasted a lot with mixed results and put away a few bottles. I opened this one not expecting too much, but it was amazingly refreshing alongside a plate of ravioli with a bacony tomato sauce. Tropical flavors. Full of life. — 7 years ago

Cru Beaujolais truly is one of the best quality wines you can get for your money. Exhibits dried herbs, smoke, cranberries, and cherry on the nose - pretty, star bright ruby color to the wine - bing cherry, clove, fresh Herbs de Provence, all held together by delicate but focused tannins, and a slightly angular acidity. Having this with a pizza, and it couldn't be more perfect, and worth every penny. — 7 years ago
