Work hard, play hard! A rare magnum of Cuvée 3.14 from Foillard, 2010 vintage. Brought by the crazy @wine_curator for our housewarming party, just so good to share these crazy bottles altogether. What an intensity. From the first pour, the wine is showing a lot of character. Not super easy to guess Gamay, this could easily be confused with Syrah. A lot of red fruits, juicy, with bramble and wet leaves. Some spicy character as well with pepper. I find it still very fresh and young. Nice purity of fruit overall and some minerality in the background. The palate is rather massive. Good concentration that isn’t common at all in Beaujolais. Tannins are still present and the oak signature is also perceptible. The wine isn’t complete yet and still deserves time to build balance and softness. But seriously impressive to see the fruit here. Slightly natty but this isn’t overwhelming. Definitely a great magnum that will benefit from additional cellaring.
