Potel-Aviron
Vieilles Vignes Juliénas Gamay



Candied cherries, strawberries, a bit of licorice with a metallic streak. On the palate, pink bubblegum, white pepper, pencil lead. Soft, well integrated tannins balance with smooth texture. There is finesse and a light body, but I wished for more fruit to balance the lingering metallic quality of the finish and more flesh - it felt a bit thin. Could be rounded out by more tannins and fruit. For the price, it is fun and light!
