Ah, Poulsard. Here it is in all its charmingly awkward glory. It's like burning dried cow dung in a winter stove - you appreciate the warmth while lamenting the absence of proper firewood. This wine demands acceptance of its peculiar nature; either you embrace its quirks or move on to something more conventional.
The profile is fascinatingly rustic: a curious blend of fruit compote intermingled with morning barn aromas and mysterious mushroom notes (best not to overthink their origin). While not complex, it's oddly appealing. The juiciness is its saving grace.
This is a wine that serves as a backdrop - perfect for accompanying a good book, friendly conversation, or video watching. Its appeal lies in its unassuming nature: juicy, fresh, and somehow reminiscent of countryside simplicity. It drinks with the gentle accessibility of a children's Bible - easy and unpretentious.
Though its aging potential remains a mystery, it's already showing well in its current state. A delightfully unconventional wine that doesn't take itself too seriously while remaining genuinely enjoyable.
