Ripe, soft, almost plummy-ish cherry fruit augmented with an almost stanky, animaly crumbled stone minerality. Soft and mouthfilling, it’s got really nice length, with fruit and savory stone notes alternating over time. Fully mature and very interesting.

A very fresh and interesting wine from the La Bottière lieu dit, by Domaine Perrachon. Juicy black fruit, tea and turned soil. Schist and granite soils.

Somewhat ripe red fruit aromas and flavors, very fruit-driven, not much minerality, seems mature, this is OK.

Red berries, little wet earth and good acidity. Easy drinking Cru Bojo.

Purple, light/medium intensity.
Spicy and yeasty nose well balanced by a rich aroma of ripe red plum.
I couldn't let go of a light barnyard whiff that caused a deeper sensation than other more celebrated wine from Beaujolais.
The red fruits kept coming flawlessly after swallowing with a prominent strawberry flavor.

Medium body and medium + acidity but balanced overall.
Not my class of red but I liked the complexity of the aromas more than flavors. It's a pleasant surprise.
