I’m not sure where my previous note went.
Just when you thought you knew Italy, up pops this might as well be SwissFrench alpine darling from the Vallée D’Aoste.
Blanc de Morgex et de la salle. The town/village of Morgex lies just below Mt. Blanc. The Prié Blanc vines thrive in soil that has not known phylloxera.
Stones, herbs,and lemons all wrapped up in a rather electric pkg. I think drink young. Cold, the nose doesn’t have much to say past stone fruit, maybe rainier cherries.,But the palate is pow! Lemons, herbs, mineral, high acid and refreshing. With fried Branzino, perfect!
Always a sucker for high altitude Italian.

Raspberry leaves and a beautiful vegetal structure to this wine. More full bodied than I expected and delighted with it. Happy belated 5th anniversary to my darling husband ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ — 4 months ago
This is a left bank, Bordeaux with a darker appearance and cherry aroma. Herb and mineral driven undertones, maybe licorice, and structured tannins. A Grand Vin de Bordeaux that was really enjoyable. (🎥 Don’t Worry Darling) — a year ago
