When you had a great wine you know it. It is when you wake up the next day and the one think on your mind is...That Wine! Chénas Quartz 2014 Cru Beaujolais from Domaine Piron-Lameloise is beautiful with its 'Teinte Grenat' colour. The nose is floral, Roses, with a touch of leather and also earthy and fruit forward of black Bing cherries. The depth of the wine is pleasantly surprising! It is better to decant it for 1hr and serving temperature should be around 17C. Stack on this wine for your cellar. It is a rare Gem! Wine pairing: For cheese lovers a nice blue cheese! Wine & Dine: Aiguillettes de canard accompanied with Cherry Chutney! One glass and you are Creating Moments!

Gross. Cooked or oxidized, I think. Tasted 20 years old and not in a good way.

Like biting into a fresh summer’s plum. Light bodied with a mineral finish.

A much heavier gamay than usual. However you still get the usual strawberries in the mouth.

I can't stop drinking this... This might be a good problem... Dark red ruby in color with a medium-plus intensity. The nose is filled with dark bing cherries, fresh cranberries, wet violets, wild mushrooms, moss, forest floor, smoked wood, and wet rocks. The palate was fleshy, mysterious and refined. Mushrooms and a perfect dose of acidity and chewy tannic structure made the finish irresistible. It's balance competes and stands tall with any of the great Burgundy producers. It's truly astonishing how this 12.5% Gamay is so complex. This bottle is hard to put down. Cheers to a perfect Friday night!
