Domaine de Fa Fleurie Roche Guillon 2015 

Dense ruby color with purple hue. Nose of mixed berries, meat, spices, violet flowers and then something leafy. Dense, deep but tight nose. Complete opposite on the palate with expressive flavors, a good acidity level, could be mistaken for a warm year Crozes-Hermitage from the Graillot familly. Fine finish on sweet spices notes. This is for me the perfect match between gamay’s drinkability and syrah’s rusticity, with a great acidity level and real yummyness. Excellent (91)

Light ruby color with purple hue. Nose of small berries, spices, earth and this light natural wine funkyness. There is a great acidity in this wine which is good since it comes from the warm 2015 vintage, and I like that! Then there was berry flavors ,earth and spices notes. It was quaffable, fresh and really good. You’re looking for a wine that will pair with heavyier winter dish? This one’s for you! Very good (89)

Bright ruby color with purple hue. Slightly funky on the nose, which is common with natural wines, but it did disappeared with air. The nose is on crushed red berries blended with spices and earth notes. The fizz present at bottle opening did cleared out too with time. From the first sip, I know this was going to offer high drinkability. Flavors of red berries, spices and earth again. There is acidity in this wine and the ripe fruit flavors are not lowering the enjoyability of it. This is what natural and organic should be all about. The last third of the bottle drank 2 days after the bottle was opened was even better. Would I put this wine in a decanter? I think so! A really well made wine. Very good + (90)

Foggy and intense gold color. The nose is intriguing, hard to describe and is like nothing I had before. I would picture it as a blend of aromas of apples, rhubarb and orange spreaded over a slate rock, plus some smoke and pie crust dough. Even more dense on the palate with apple and tangerine flavors, quite round at first then it straighten up with mineral chalk and rocks with a salty touch. Wide on the palate while being straight forward, long, genuine and tasty. One special thing I liked about that wine is that impression of control and balance. Excellent (91)91)
