It had enough umph to match nicely with lamb burgers grilled over charcoal and pecan chips; Italian green beans, and a mini baguette. Yum!

Found out that the umph (or oomph if you will), came from a 15% shot of Syrah according to the winery's website[URL=http://wines.com/wineboard/newthread.php?fid=17].[/URL]]]>

But, wow. this is still a great wine. Still rich and dense, lovely fruit and smooth textural. The parts that are the complexity, bit of the balance, but that may be more attributed to vintage than the wine itself.]]>

Noise is just wonderful, with that for me typically slightly sweet red fruit and slight spicy nose, followed by dark red fruitst. On the palate its much the same, only with a good level of density, good minerality and freshness. Wines appears to have a solid core structure, as it evolved slowly over dinner. Thing was a very nice bottle, making me glad that I picked up six so I can revisit slowly for the next few years.]]>

Better than expected, without the banana-flavored yeast that once characterized his wines. Nice familiar Beaujolais nose but darker in the glass than I expected, jammy on the palate without being syrupy, quite nice and light with a moderate finish. She liked it so I'll buy again. 13% alc/vol.]]>

The wine for dinner, which I had a wonderful pasta/froi Gras/lamb combo was just fab. The dinner wine was another beaujoulais, the 2008 Jean Foillard Morgon Cote du py. This turned out to be a really good call. Absolutely delicious and much cheaper than the burgs. A slightly lacqour tone, lightly toasted wood, but nice fruit nice structure and the typical gamay flavor profile. Loverly stuff!

My favorites were the Julienas "La Trinquee," which was seriously fun but also had some depth and the Morgon "Jean Descombes" which was delicious but should hold up for quite a while.
The Fleurie "Quatre Vents" and Moulin A Vent "La Tour Du Bief" seemed less impressive to me. They were fine, but not as outstanding as the other two.
All wines between $15 and $20.]]>

Delicate, somewhat elusive nose that combines dark berries with violets. Light-bodied with refreshingly bright berry fruit. Perhaps raspberry comes closest to describing the flavor. Acid in balance with other components. IMO this tastest freshest and best the first night opened. I paired it with baked chicken one night and with deli thinly-sliced smoked turkey breast and mushroom bisque another night. Would buy again. I didn't realize I had already posted on this one.
Interesting that I got cherries back in November and raspberry this time and that it held up better the second and third night in November.
