Saint-Amour (2003)

Bizarrely the Saint-Amour is a Beaujolais from the village of Saint-Amour. Saint-Amour is one of ten villages that make up the Beaujolais Crus, usually offering a large increase in quality from ordinary Beaujolais. This vibrant cherry-coloured wine has a really lovely flavour of strawberry and briar-wood. Nice but not as nice as the Fleurie...
