After a late night's work last night, I returned home to find a bottle of wine open on the kitchen counter. In the interests of scientific inquiry, I of course had to try some ;-)
2006 Dom. de Vissoux Beaujolais "Pierre Chermette" nose: fresh, bright red fruit palate: light body, fruity, forward
My previous experience with this producer had been with their Fleurie "Poncié" and their old vine "Cuvée Traditionelle." In contrast to the CT, this wine is simpler, lighter and more exuberantly fruity, a lovely "vin de soif" but not a wine to age.
