Sep 28th, 2018Fun to have a Beaujolais with age...almost takes on some old Pinot noir or Arbois qualities...notes of dried strawberries, forest floor and a touch of umami

Sep 22nd, 2017Belated B Day dinner at the Four Horsemen part 1: 20 yro Morgon so expressive & probably can't go much further-dirty black cherry, dried porcini, just lovely, medium(-) mouthfeel that jived with the 'crudo' part of meal (anchovies w chili oil/mackerel w black plum etc/black bass sashimi w scallion). Thanks to my homies & especially @Jonas Lafortezza for the wine bar suggestion. Savio Soares imp

Aug 27th, 2017I've been in New York for 2 years. This wine has been in this bottle for 19. Our experiences have changed us but we're better than ever and much more expensive now

Dec 10th, 2015A little reduced at first, but after 30 minute decant its opening up beautifully. Floral, herbal, earthy and fruity...and very much still young and vibrant.
