Plummy with a floral finish. This is a young Gamay with gobs of acidity but somehow it all just works. A little slight with red meat but full and delectable with cheesy pasta. It drinks lighter and livelier than you might expect a Morgon, usually what I feel is the heaviest of Cru Beaujolais. Put a blind fold on Mr. Parker and maybe he’d mistake it for Fleurie? Apparently a Top 100 over at the WS.
Price: $26 at BC Liquor. Very good value.
Market Liquidity: Jam sponge in a bottle.
