Beautiful, inviting nose with aromas of strawberries, blueberries, plums, sweet spices and light minerality. On the mouthfeel, medium-full bodied, framed with spicy fruit flavours, crisp acidity and grainy tannins. The finish is long, really tasty with those same grainy tannins making a comeback and slightly coating your mouth.

Hard to find here, Beaujolais from Saint-Amour, the most Northerly of the ten Beaujolais cru. What a gorgeous wine, with great aromatics, beautiful texture and long flavourful finish. A wine that brought a smile to my face the entire evening. A charming, lively Beaujolais full of flavours best served slightly chilled. Strongly recommended, I have to purchase a few more bottles. Cheers my wine friends 🍷
