Delicious taste and price. Another winner from Weimax — a year ago
Slightly deeper ruby garnet , narrower rim . Deeper and younger , touch of wood smoke then quite ripe black fruits , rounder with better definition on the nose than the 1994 . More degraded cassis and grafite noticeable than the wine before, tobacco , touch of seashell , marine influence comes though . On the palate the fruit fills out better than the 1994, quite dark and serious , grafite , tobacco and cedar , however the tannin is less rustic and better integrated . Nice balancing acidity. This has quite good length and is showing well now though could age a little longer. Probably is best drunk over the next few years — 2 years ago
Popped, double decanted without waiting. Nose is quite Cote de Beaune-ian. Pure, sappy, just-ripe cherry, significant earthy, stony minerality. In the mouth, it still seems relatively tight in its seventh year. Good intensity, but wound-up and sporting high acidity. Seems like it needs more time in bottle (or maybe another hour or two of air). I’m impressed with the seriousness of this one, though it’s not exactly hedonistic right now. Score could easily go up over time. — 4 months ago
Don’t think I’ve had this producer before. Overall nice, better than I expected. Definitely get the Sonoma quality, in that you wouldn’t mistake this for burgundy due to the higher cola / fruit feel and less earth and mineral refinement. But it’s still a well made wine with some good persistence and clocks in at a reasonable 13.3%. — 6 months ago
Deep ruby color; dried herbs, plums and black cherries on the nose; high acidity; medium plus tannins; tastes like sour cherries, raspberries, and wet slate with a long finish. It's a little bitter at the end, but a very interesting wine. Not bad. I think it will pair well with the Ruben I ordered. — 2 years ago

The 2014 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru certainly has one of the more attractive bouquets with redcurrant and cranberry, a touch of tobacco and marine aromas (cockle sheds I used to play on in the Thames Estuary). The palate is well balanced, with a touch of curry leaf on the entry and more black than red fruit. The 2014 has a firm grip with a noticeable backbone, yet the finish has plenty of freshness. Drinking well now, but there are a few years left to enjoy. (Neal Martin, Vinous, June 2024)

Very impressive for entry level of Morgen Long. So Burgundian! They’re making some of the best old world style Chardonnay’s in the USA. — 3 months ago
