Lovely mature red-fruited aromatics and flavors in this lovely Cru Morgon, the ripeness of the 2009 vintage shows through (13.5% ABV vs, the more normal 12.5% ABV), this vintage is holding well, but probably needs to be drunk soon. — 10 days ago

This ranks right up there with the best Beaujolais I've had (Foillard 3.14, aged Chamonard in mag, etc). Came out without the barnyard aspect right away and was a sensual pleasure to drink, but with plenty of nuance. From magnum at Untitled — 9 years ago

When the funk hits the fan! Funky, nutty, delicious, age is a splendid thing, this wine is old enough to play the lotto. — 10 years ago

Wilder, juicier, more feral than the 2017 Chamonard Madone Fleurie tried side by side. Less development in the bottle, fresher, cleaner, juicier. Really quite nice, pure tart length. Maybe a 9.3 if this holds up in the fridge. — 4 years ago

gorgeous, simple Beaujolais. Chanudet from chamonard made from a plot co owned with Lapierre bought from Chauvet. — 10 years ago

Hmm that's funny. More Chamonard than Foillard to me for this bottle; a touch more VA and barnyard than the typical Foillard resinous white flower aromatics I've come to love. Great with mustard and panko encrusted pork tenderloin with sautéed apples, but then that's not surprising. Still wields a great dark cherry fruity grip. Lots of crushed dried autumn leaves on the nose and palate. Good, but perhaps a slightly muddled bottle. — 11 years ago

Very mineral and floral up front, seems riper than the Pignan Regnie and Chamonard Morgon, but 2011 seems to supply the requisite backbone and structure, nice balance, medium-long finish, very good! — 4 years ago

Originally a collaboration between the late great Marcel Lapierre, Jean-Claude Chanudet and Joseph Chamonard, the vines are now managed by Jean-Claude & Genevieve Chanudet, carbonic maceration, wild yeast, grapes aged in 200 year-old foudres, explosion of red & blue fruits, not much tannin or acid, just pure fruit deliciousness. It won't change your life but damn this is brilliant for the price. — 9 years ago

Volatile core and slightly barnyardy not that different from Chamonard in that respect... but so acid spiky and delicious crab apple...screaming for pâté, mustard, roasted earthy root vegetables — 12 years ago
