Jay Kline

Popped and poured; no formal notes. Despite being 20 years old and a 2003, it is very much alive and far from overblown, let alone tired. While certainly mature, the fruit was a very pleasant mix of ripe and dried dark fruits with some mushroom in forest floor. It is a touch mousy, but it’s hard to expect anything less considering the production methods. Drink now and over the next 5 to 10 years.

2003 Morgon Vieilles Vignes, Guy Breton. Awesome vintage. Still in its adolescence, needed decanting. Decades of life ahead
