“Cherry liqueur” was how one critic put it, think RP. Pretty much verbalized what I was feeling. This has that liqueur like aroma and palate along with some spice and earthy notes as well. Starting to soften up but still feel a touch of “heat” and we really enjoyed it slightly chilled.

Morlet never disappoints, especially after 5yrs or so in the bottle when the fruit, tannins alcohol have really settled and integrated beautifully. Red fruit and some spices on the palate before a long floral finish that leaves you wanting another sip. Paired perfectly with wagyu beef.

2013. Nice blend of fruit and wood (cedar?) well balanced with astringent tannins. Really good- for a pinot, which is not my usual choice. Well done!
