"Cuvée Corcelette" Morgon Gamay 2022

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a few hours and alongside Boulard’s “Corcelette” from 2014. The 2022 “Cuvée Corcelette” from Foillard pours a deep garnet color with medium viscosity and moderate staining of the tears. On the nose the wine is developing with notes of wild strawberries, freshly cut roses, tarragon, licorice, blood orange, and a new bar of Irish Spring. It’s definitely a touch mousy but well within the acceptable range for me. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, fresh and so Foillard. Drink now through 2042. — 3 months ago

Morgon Corcelette Gamay 2020

A beaujolais in a cru Burgundy style. My previous note still stands except that the flowery notes disappeared, and the oaky touches are more present. Cherry, hay, vanilla, oak, earthy notes too. The palate is showing a great acid drive, some nice cherry notes all along, a good grip, some width and even a mocha, oaky touch before some tannins in the rear, rather stronger than the average oak treatment you get in the region, a spherical mid palate before a long, very long finish with a drying effect, mocha, oaky notes and that superb, typical cherry and hay note I love in great gamays. I could easily see it stand its ground in a red cote de beaune village to 1er cru blind line up. — 19 days ago

this is serious winemaking at work. Very burgundian in style, very classy. As far from beaujolais nouveau as you can possibly find.

Fleurie Gamay 2012

Fully mature mouth-coating herbs and tomato. Lacks freshness of most bojo but somehow works with broad mid-palate. A treat, for sure. — 3 months ago

Morgon Gamay 2023

A solid young gamay. Bramble and tart blackberries strong on the taste buds and a hint of pomegranate. Potting soil and forest floor at the end. Med+ acidity, low-med tannins, med+ body. — 25 days ago
