A deeper, more structured side of Gamay, with ripe cherry, raspberry, violet, licorice, crushed stone, and subtle savory spice. The fruit is generous and juicy, but there’s real depth here, with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a distinctly mineral finish. Classic Morgon with the elegance and complexity to reward a little time in the cellar — though it’s already pretty hard to resist.
