Domaine De La Grand'Cour (Jean-Louis Dutraive)

Les Clos Cuvée Vielles Vignes Fleurie Gamay 2014

After the hype from Somm2 and good feedback from wine biz buds, my verdict is this is a very, very good Beaujolais Cru. I definitely recommend you try it if you are into Burgundy or esp Cru Bojo. My wife guessed Burgundy blind when I poured it for her. Like ripe red raspberry and bing Cherry, with a dash of roasted herbs smeared on a granite rock...yeah, literally that. The aroma is a perfume of red fruits caught in a tug of war with a granite rock-like minerality and roasted herbs and forest floor. The palate is dead sexy, juicy and sappy fruit and acidity, with a perfect balance and elegance that feels weightless. Thanks for the enlightenment @Jason Wise and @Brian McClintic! Now I can add #dutraive to my faves from #beaujolais like #lapierre #thivin #foillard #sunier #thevenet — 9 years ago

Despres also had a quick appearance in the film and is very good as well.

Morgon Gamay 2009

APPEARANCE Clear Medium Ruby color. NOSE Clean Light aromas of Red berry fruit mélange, tea leaf, with air more notes of earth and spice.. PALATE Dry sweetness, Medium acid and Low tannin with Light body and flavours of spice that lessen on the palate while the tea flavors are more pronounced, however the red berry fruits are the most present of the flavors with a streak of minerality. which last for Medium length on the finish. Very Good quality. #beaujolais #morgon #lapierre — 11 years ago

Cuvée Camille Morgon Gamay 2014

A special wine on a special day. Maybe the best Beaujolais wine I have ever had, but I will reserve that official judgement for a day when I am not sensorily handicapped. The aroma enraptures the nose with a perfume of red berries, subtle spice and a profusion of mineral and rocks. The palate works like a lense of transparency of flavor tthat changes focus in layers, revealing different nuances and degrees of flavor, acidity and tannin. A really special wine! #lapierre #gamay #birthyear for #camille #happybirthday #terroir — 9 years ago

Morgon Gamay 2011

25/7 - Visited #Chalon dan la Rue (street art) this week end, then we went to a #Lapierre #Morgon #2011. Not the best of vintages... But like all wines with the minimal interaction, natural, or sincere as. #Dobianchi called them once in an posting, they don't understand much of a "bad" vintage. Time after time the "bad" vintages of such producers always come around nicely in 3, 4 or 5 years later. So did this one, earthy, elegant, layers of floral & red berry fruit as far as the acidity.... SEXY. btw all the drinking was done moving from one stage to another and even that it was amazing — 9 years ago
