Domaine Calot Cuvee Vielles Vignes 2000 Mediun cherry red appearance, medium intense aromas of dusty cherry and floral notes. Dry, medium acidity, smooth tannins. Dried cherries, strawberries on palate. Beautiful smooth fruity finish, good length. After 1 hour of decanting: Intense aroma of cherries, raspberries, strawberries. Fresh rosemary. Palate mimics the nose. Good concentration of fruit balanced with medium acid and smooth tannin. Dried herbs along with fruit in the finish. Perhaps the best Beaujolais I've had. From Morgon in Beaujolais, this is serious wine from a region known for light playfull easy drinking wine. Although this wine is easy to drink it does not fall into the catagory of "light" and "playfull". Much more complex and structured than most Beaujolais. Apparently the wine maker plays music to the wine while it is fermenting. Could this be the secret to great Beaujolais? Ciao, "T".
