Great structure, spice and fruit. Blends the lines between Beaujolias and the Côte d’Or. Fascinating.

You sexy beast. Strawberry and blueberry...if put in a beautiful pie. Sweet baking spice. Touch of olive and smoke. Got some structure. Morgon can be so velvety and voluptuous.

New label for the Morgon Grands Cras 2012 from Laurent GAUTHIER. The 2012 Morgon Grands Cras is showing ripe strawberries, cherries and some white pepper. Fruity with a nice acidity, a perfect vin de soif!

Energetic, full of fresh forestfruit. A smoky, earthy and mineral undertow lurking below the surface.
Very nice now. Or in the next 5-8 years.

Bright, fresh, fruity with a hint of clove and cinnamon. Just deliciously quaffable.
