QPR champ #morgon #grandcras from J.M. Dupré - my second bottle this year. Notes remain the same as previous review in July, repeat impression is of nice balance of red/black fruit and savory notes. Noticing a lovely palate texture that was less obvious last time; slight peppery prickle on the tip of the tongue that fades away after airing out in the glass. This is one of the best food pairing wines that I’ve tasted recently, matched up beautifully to pork carnitas & beef sirloin tacos (no spicy salsa.) Great juice for ~$12 a bottle at #costco .

Very nice for the price, perhaps not the most complex but classic and satisfying

Aug 30th, 2022Ah #morgon magic - right away aromas of red/black berry compote, a pleasantly earthy funk, iron, graphite, black tea. Medium-light body, crunchy acidity, slight feathery tannins. Such a pretty wine that paired well with vegetable/cauliflower tapas, fresh tuna ceviche, poached salmon and all the way to buffalo steak.

Finesse. Subtle but with all the notes of a typical, but light, Morgon. Big fan.
