Such a potent concentration of dark fruits, cassis, with some funk. In other words, packs a wallop but Beaujo style. Dessert island wine…

I find that a little cuddling and a little more time in cellar really benefits this cru Beaujolais. What you end up with is more robust, detailed, red fruited gem of a wine. Lovely nervy tension between its acidic back bone and the fruit. The brett does blow off, still an earthy nose. Reminds me why I prefer Moulin Vent crus to Morgon

Barnyard nose, plenty of funk, opens up to deep red fruit, earthy tones.

Beautiful fruit profile and some herbs and earth too. Tart acidity, medium bodied, and solid structure, but way too young right now. Huge tannins.

Young & a beaut. Not sure why I skipped Moulin-a-Vent boat all these years. Heartier, more broad approach than a Morgon, & of course medium age worthy.

Nice deep fruit. Quite ripe. Loads of tannin. A bit boozy on the finish and tannins are kind of young-angular. This should age well. Very good but not what I expected. Biggest Cru Bojo I’ve ever tasted. Better after decant from the fridge.
