Marcel Lapierre Morgon 2011
Morgon, Beaujolais Villages, Beaujolais, Burgundy, FranceIf your only acquaintance with Beaujolais is the baby, carbonically macerated nouveau style, you owe it to yourself to buy this wine. Morgon is widely recognized for producing high quality wines with structure and aging potential. This wine lures with herbs, stone, perfumed wild raspberries and strawberries and intoxicating floral notes. The silky palate is full of cherries - Bing and black - perfectly woven with strawberry, flowers, earth, mineral and savoury notes. A complete wine. Lovely structure, dense yet perfumed fruit, bright acid, and a finish that lingers on and on. As much as I enjoyed drinking this right now, I would save any future bottles for 8-10 years.Tasted: 16 March 2015Tasted by: Prices:BC | $40.00 | 750ml | specialty listing |
