Louis Jadot Beaujolais 2022 France

*Sustainably Farmed

90 Points Wine Enthusiast: "This is a robust Beaujolais that holds its own. Deep-purple in color, this wine has a perfumed nose of black plum, blackberry, dried violet blossom and dried black cherry. Additional notes of forest floor and hay reveal themselves on the palate, which is concentrated with a slightly velvety texture. Age for five years or enjoy now."
