Côte du Py Morgon Gamay 2022

9.1

Finally got to drink one of the famous #morgon producers. Sappy red fruit, touch of enticing funk, purple floral notes and some sous bois aromas. Lushly textured on palate, iron, lofty acidity. Sure it’s a bit young but had to seize the day on this occasion. #foillardftw — a month ago

Dr Pepper. Thinner than the last Beaujolais I had today but still mighty tasty. — 2 months ago

I knew these need time but don’t remember such disjointedness when young? — 2 months ago

I’ve noticed that, in recent years, many types of wines (particularly from various regions in France) seem blockier and less unified/integrated when young. Like all the components are there, but separated and not vertically integrated. And it seems more pronounced the hotter the growing season that year. I am beginning to think this is a result of global warming. What I don’t yet have a fix on is if time in bottle ultimately integrates these wines. Since I tend to drink wines on the younger side, I’m not sure I’ll ever get to the point where I can make a confident conclusion on that.

Very tart, lip - smacking cherry juice. Would be lovely on the deck on a warm summer evening. Alas, it’s 25 and snowing, but nice nonetheless. Takes a little of the chill out of winter. — 3 months ago

The 2015 Côte-de-Brouilly from Nicole Chanrion is a delicious, ten year old Beaujolais Cru that delivers
good structure, excellent balance, surprising depth and a large amount of pure, primary fruit. Nothing else is needed. — a month ago

My favorite Roilette bottling. Old vine; 90+. This is proof that Cru Beaujolais can age. Darker and heavier than your typical Gamay. Darker fruit, mix of red and black fruit. More structure and a little oak, medium tannins. Becoming harder and harder to source. Have a vertical from 2013 to 2020. — 3 months ago
