Notions of cherries, berry compote, sweet soil tones and smoke introduce the 2020 Morgon, a medium to full-bodied, rich and fleshy wine with lively acids, melting tannins and a saline finish. As usual, it's derived largely from Corcelette, which accounts for its rather charming profile.
This flagship estate, owned by Beaune negociant Louis Jadot, has produced a wine with great intensity and structure. Partly wood aged, the blend of three vineyards is rich although with a strong streak of freshness and acidity. That, along with the tannins, suggests it could age.
Very deep in color, this wine – blend of three single vineyards (Bellevue, Côte du Py & Roche noire) – shows a brilliant and large aromatic palette (spices, ripen black fruit). On the palate, the tannins are still a bit firm – which indicates the potential of ageing – and they are well balanced by a great tension.
A perfect partner for charcuterie, pasta in a rich cream sauce, pizza and pretty much any meat.
Gamay, the star grape of Beaujolais, is all about fun and flavor! Picture a glass brimming with juicy cherry and raspberry notes, backed by a zesty kick of acidity. It's the life of the party, especially when it comes to Beaujolais Nouveau, that vibrant celebration of the harvest released each November. But it's not just France; Gamay's spreading its joy worldwide, popping up in bottles from Switzerland to the United States. With its fruity charm and easy-drinking style, Gamay is a grape that's impossible not to love!
