Get real, people. Things age. We all age. Wine ages. Some of it ages ok. Generally, we do better with age than we think we will. And so does wine. So get over it.
This Beaujolais Village is a heartening example for us all. At first, a laugh, a grin, an oh brother, but then here it is. It's ok! A bit of Morgonian meat, some structure, a bit of bitters on the back end, but at the end of the day this is wine, identifiable for its Drouhin house style even. A perfect wine for a bit of leftovers - Chinese, meatloaf, roast potatoes, etc.
Drink up, laddies, and enjoy those old bouteilles! Fear not your passing!
PS the 02 Jadot BV opened prior to this sucked, but I chalk that up to the lame composite cork piece of shite closure.
Over and out.
