One of the most reliable and complex of all the cru Beaujolais, this example from Jean-Ernest Descombes runs true to form. A note of violets on the nose pulls you into the glass seductively, where it delivers sweet red fruits, a juicy texture and soft, supple tannins that make for easy summer sipping.
