The red cherry characters here are more like a Pinot Noir in style than the confected notes you see from Beaujolais made in the traditional carbonic maceration method. It's showing a bit of maturity in its colour, but there's still red fruit vibrancy, lifted floral notes and bright acidity. One for pâtés and antipasti platters.
