Burgundy Gamay

Marcel Lapierre

Morgon Gamay 2021

It was fondue night so let’s drink some Beaujolais! This is my second time enjoying the 2021 Lapierre Morgan “S” and the first was enjoyed over the course of several days. With that first experience, there was positive evolution until the last glass. This time, I chose to pour into a decanter several hours prior to dinner. No formal notes but this exhibits a beautiful bouquet of raspberries, strawberries, pink flowers, herbs, stone minerals, and just a touch funky…reminding you of Lapierre’s natural sensibilities. Structure is medium…though acid kinda creeps up into the medium+ category. A wonderful pairing with fondue made with a 50/50 of Gruyère/Raclette and served in the Swiss style. Drink now with an extended decant or enjoy through 2031. — 18 days ago

Clos Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2008

Dense and still quite packed. Rockpool, floral notes, green apple. Really classy but a bit tight at first. Over an hour in the glass this unfurls and it’s pretty stunning. Really precise stone fruit, a contained lushness with wet stone notes and minerality. Years ahead but this is great — 14 days ago

Valmur Chablis Grand Cru Chardonnay 2011

very fresh and bright. Gorgeous fruit- pure and long. So Raveneau in character with that chalky, pretty mid palate. All the lovely clarity of 11 Raveneau — 14 days ago

Côte du Py Morgon Gamay 2014

Sour cherries along a dusty gravel road. A bit muted. Some herbs and violet. Polished tannins, good acidity, medium plus finish. Sad to realize this might be over the hill as I have several bottles still waiting. It had such an enchanting perfume in its youth. — a month ago
