Yum, red forest fruits, spice, tea, nice tannins and a long finish, but I don’t think it has reached the 2010 levels — 9 years ago

Really had no idea what to expect from this, but it's super delicious. Bright, juicy Grenache with bite. Bit of a spritz and a twist of VA, medicinal, almost figgy fruit. Proper med tropical juice. Good. — 10 years ago

現行2010だが、こちらは2006。
甘濃いワインは嫌煙していたのだが、やられた。
メルローのようなプラムのニュアンス。枯葉やタバコのような熟成した雰囲気と甘いバニラの香り。
透き通った柔らかな酸味と滑らかなタンニンが後味を締める。
甘美なワイン。 — 10 years ago

High toned red fruit, some VA and lots of acidity. We decanted it to let it soften up a bit. Second time to drink Thévenet this month. Maximum drinking pleasure! His VV cuvée comes from a parcel with 70+ year old vynes and is aged in old oak barrels (that first belonged to Domaine Romanée-Conti), after a 'cool' (not cold) macération carbonique. — 11 years ago

First time trying the '15s and it's as great as always. This is definitely a decent amount more brawny and ripe than the '14s but still identifiable as a Lapierre wine. That said, I'm still not the biggest fan of most of these '15's so far, they are too hot and ripe and don't really fit the profile of what I want from most Beaujolais. This is still pretty good on its own merits though. Day 1 it was closed and not giving up very much but on this morning, Day 2, it's come around and opened up quite a bit. Ripe, juicy strawberry and raspberry red fruit, tart rhubarb, wild violet, smoky gravel minerality, with a nice briny, almost gamey salinity underscoring things a bit. Nice medium (+) acid, medium (-) body with a great, soft texture. Just a touch of fine, supple tannic grip. There a bit of brett and VA but they're in balance rather than being a faulty distraction; the VA helps give a little extra lift, if anything. Will try another bottle after some more time has passed because even though it's good now it honestly still needs to come together a bit more; it seemed almost still slightly bottle shocked when I first opened it yesterday. If you're opening one soon I'd recommend giving it a little air to let it unfurl. — 9 years ago

Lots of bottle variation, this was one of the good ones. Lifted, without too much VA; funky, without too much Brett. All the red fruit and hot rocks and pretty aromatics you could want. — 11 years ago

Clear deep orange in the glass. Big bosomy nose of white flowers and candied orange peel. Full rich body with medium plus acidity. Lilies and orange peel lead on the palate. Medium finish with a hint of wet stone. Great on its own, but lives for food. — 10 years ago
