The wine is defined by its minerality, with aromas of wet stone that leave a powerful first impression. It makes sense when you consider that the vineyards in Chénas (and the other Beaujolais crus) are largely planted in granite soils, and it’s especially pronounced in this wine. On the palate, that stony quality melds with tastes of black cherry, blueberry, cranberry, and raspberry — all of it punctuated by crisp acidity and firm tannins.

It’s a textbook example of why cru Beaujolais is often capable of aging. While the wine is enjoyable now, time will bring all those elements together more seamlessly in the bottle. It will be a different wine a year — or a decade — from now, which is part of what makes cru Beaujolais so intriguing.
