Pre-Dinner wine, bought in the Jadot wine shop this morning after our crazy tasting (20) this morning.

Settling in but still bright fruits on the nose, but a barnyard aspect beginning to creep in. Palate still is very sharp, mud covered raspberry/cherry, are the primary notes.

Ruby color, limpid, fluid. A nose of red fruits, flowers and woody notes from aging. Bouquet, classic and classy nose. On the palate, the attack is balanced, the body is charming, the tannins of oak barrels and the fruit are well mixed, with notes of red fruits and flowers. The finish unfolds on woody tannins and a tangy return. Without great complexity but balanced. The wine falls quickly, to drink on the opening day.

Robe rubis, limpide, fluide. Nez bouqueté, classique et classieux, mêlant fruits rouge, fleurs et notes boisées d’élevage. En bouche l’attaque est équilibrée, le corp est charmeur les tanins de fût de chênes et le fruit sont bien mêlés, sur des notes fruits rouges et fleurs. La finale se déploie sur les tanins boisés et un retour acidulés agréables. Sans grande complexité mais équilibré. Le vin tombe vite, à boire le jour de l’ouverture.

The third bottle, still as delicious, of this Beaujolais with southern accents. If he was blind he could easily call Saint-Joseph, for example. The crunchiness of the typical gamay fruit is associated here with a rather dense general structure with a material of black fruit and roasted or toasted notes. 2015 is awesome 👍

not as exuberant as the 2015, needs time to open. Leave to settle for at least 3/4 hours. However, there are some nice gourmet notes specific to Morgon.
