2022 Morgon, Grand Cras, Domaine de Vernus, Beaujolais

Description

This parcel is located at the foot of Cote de Py. Very floral on the nose alongside ripe black fruits retaining good freshness. We can also discern animal and leather notes compared to the straight Morgon adding a layer of complexity. Elegant on the palate with lovely bright blue fruit. Still, a more rustic Beaujolais compared to the rest of the range but will age very well. Give this one some time in a Carafe before drinking.

Critics reviews

Neal Martin 89/100

The 2022 Morgon Grands Cras displays just a touch of herbaceousness on the nose, suggesting some stressed vines, but there is an overall sense of freshness here. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, classically styled with fine acidity and tart red berry fruit toward the elegant finish. Enjoy it over the next five or six years.

Stunning nose of a whole garden of summer flowers. Behind this charm offensive is a deep and powerful wine with great clarity of black and red berry fruit. The ample fine tannins are already beautifully integrated, and it would be no crime to drink this beauty right now. Super-long, very structured and precise finish. A great Morgon from a warm site that deserves to be better known. Sustainable. Drink or hold.
