Took some major CPR to get this one back. Crazy variations on the nose. Mellowed nicely. Very drinkable although fruit and tannins have waned. A treat for something older than I am! — 6 years ago

2019 Cote du Py By far the best Gamay Noir I have tasted in several years. Such a precise expression of Morgon. This aroma shows the perfect combination of deep and inviting cherry plum fruitiness along with the slightest brush pepperiness and subtle meaty/earthy hints. There is no funky Brett in this wine that I can find. Not squeaky clean commercial either. There is no mistaking the pedigree of this vineyard site as well as the deft hand of this legendary producer. The texture is pure pleasure, almost nil tannins (The way I like it), and major length. Woody, brushy (rotundones) are combined with perfectly ripe tree fruit and alluring minerality . For anyone confused about the distinction between Burgundy and Beaujolais this should stand as a model example. Bravo bravo bravo!!! — 3 years ago

This wine popped. Bright red fruits with solid valley floor flavor and jumps from the glass. Opened up nicely with only 1 hour out of bottle. — 24 days ago
