Wine of the night and more. An incredible example of how good Morgon can be. Complexity, length, structure, and the rest.

Strawberry balsamic dominating a long, silky mouthfeel and finish. Balanced and beautiful and still could have gone longer.

Sour cherries along a dusty gravel road. A bit muted. Some herbs and violet. Polished tannins, good acidity, medium plus finish. Sad to realize this might be over the hill as I have several bottles still waiting. It had such an enchanting perfume in its youth.

My friends call this a "hand grenade". Fantastic Morgan! Had a funky start, but really morphed into a fantastic wine. Cherry forward. Blue and black fruit mid. Lovely finish

Simply beautiful Beaujolais the aromas bursts out of the glass. Floral and delicate like walking through a garden on a sweet spring day. Tons of red perfectly ripe fruits such as strawberries and red cherries. Just as delicate on the pallet as the nose with mouth filling flavors of cherry and red current. Surprisingly long finish that lingers throughout your pallet. Perfect BBQ wine on a cool summer night simply fresh and enjoyable.

This is what drugs must feel like. Silky tannins, superb earthiness that reeeeally reminds me of older good Burgundy, perfectly juicy fruit. Insane combination of flavors. I kinda hate myself for having not tried this heavenly wine before, all while knowing that Foillard is one of the kings of the region.
