Much richer and more beautiful on the nose than the Fleurie. Red fruits hard candy and a hint of sweet vanilla. Silky tannin and nice structure. Very good bottle for Morgon.

Negociant Morgon that tastes like the watered down version of true Cru Beaujolais. Flat raspberries, blueberry puree.

Flavors of dark raspberry, chocolate, dried cherries, vanilla, slight syrup aroma plus flavors, deep ruby red color slightly black core.

Cherries on the nose, with a touch of earth. Dry with decent structure on the palate, good acidity, and plenty of tart cranberry and red fruit.

Absolutely fabulous. 2011 is the best bottle of Crus Gamay I have had since 2009 and some 2010 vintages. Lots of clean fruit goodness.

A lot of chalky minerality. The fruit is subdued and nuanced. Light-bodied with congruent finish. Not particularly complex or deep, but the home turf is evident and the result is very food friendly.
