Cuvée 3.14 Morgon Gamay
Drinking from a 1.5ml magnum sized bottle with ten years on it. Medicinal cherry fruit and a heavy amount of funky ass brettanomyces. The wine is so rich and layered. I can see how the bretty flavors could bother some people. Drinking with Popeyes sweet & spicy chicken wings. This wine reminds me of the incredibly rare 3 Fonteinen Sharbeekse cherry beer made with special cherries. The funky reductive & brett flavors mellowed as the wine opened up.

Jul 7th, 2018Everything’s in harmony here. Bright crunchy berry fruit, wild cherries, candied citrus and fresh navel orange zest. Savory herbs, baking spices, and a crystalline minerality are present, with just a slight touch of funk. Long round acid-driven finish. Super clean, focused, and vibrant. A reference point for complex yet drinkable Beaujolais.
