Desvignes likes a submerged cap and employs a grid with varying times and % of cluster depending on product.
N:Inky black, smashed strawberries, some coal tar, herbs, endlessly developing.Smoke & meat. echoed on the palate.
P:Light and dense at the same time, grippy. Blackberries, bright, nice acidity.
I bet w patience, this would round out nicely, crunchy now.All the dark berries.

Quality like this from Morgon always makes spring a bit better.

Plenty of ripe red fruit, bubble gum, medium body and a lot of brett on the nose. — 5 months ago
Red deep fruit colour. Very nice nose of cherry and spices, pepper. In the mouth it is both crunchy and of a beautiful intensity, which will express all the better as the bottle will have been aerated for at least a good hour. An elegant bourguignon beaujolais, with a gastronomic profile that is still a little young. Clearly tailored for long guard. — 2 years ago

Really very nice. Quite a classic Beaujolais - couldn’t mistake for anything else. Opened 5 hours ahead, no decant, proper chill. Lots of cherry and pepper and a string of earth. Excellent mouthfeel and acid and a nice long finish. Very enjoyable and a good value. — a month ago
