2018 Morgon, Côte du Py

Vininformation

93 point - James Suckling: "With its ripe-plum and licorice nose, this concentrated and ripe Beaujolais reflects the very warm vintage, but the deep, fine tannins hold this generous package together very well. And the freshness at the bold, long finish suggests this has some years ahead of it."

17+ - Jancis Robinson: "Gamay at its greatest: this has the meatiness of Rhône Syrah with the lift of Chambolle-Musigny. Such a good example of beaujolais as a fine wine. There is lightness of touch on the finish, and perhaps the finish is just a little briefer than you long for, but at the asking price this must be one of the world's best-value fine wines. Wonderfully earthy, mineral and profound, and drinking just beautifully now."

Morgon Côte du Py kommer fra 8 hektar i det allerbedste terroir i Morgon. Der er tale om et bjerg af vulkansk oprindelse placeret lige i hjertet af appellationen. Jordbunden er dekomposteret granit, rig på jernoxyd. Også her er vinstokkene mere end 50 år gamle. Der gæres i op mod 20 dage med såvel "pigeage" og "remontage". 30% af den unge vin lagres på et miks af foudres og barriques for øget kompleksitet og rundhed.
