“This is a structured wine. Bold tannins underline the blackberry fruits and acidity, giving power to what is in fact a light wine. The tannins demand further aging, so drink from 2024.”–Roger Voss (Apr 2023)
▸ 96 Points – James Suckling (Jan 2024)
“This has another level of concentration and finesse to the great majority of 2021 Beaujolais Crus, with the rooty and earthy complexity married to a compact core of fine tannins that makes this sensually fascinating and delightful. Extremely long and complex finish with cascading savory and mineral notes. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.”–Stuart Pigott (Jan 2024)
