Wow, Michael, only a 90 😳 What was it missing for you? Were you on the 2015 vintage?

Glad you gave it a try! What vintage....was it a single-batch year? Love to compare to my cellar notes :)

Bob Irwin

Ron, it was 2014, bought it at the winery after a tasting a few years' back.

Ron from VA

Wow, nice! Probably a 2011 or ‘12 vintage, eh? I am sure the vibrant acid was still fresh? What did you pair your bottle with, if you don’t mind me asking :)

I love it. Carnal, wild - my favorite of Bea’s reds as the alcohol is balanced. VA is present and borders on too much but doesn’t get there — 6 years ago

Marcel Lapierre

Morgon Gamay 2019

Joe Weinberger

9.1

Cuvée N - Lapierre’s non-sulphured Morgon. The 2019 vintage is very accessible now, but I think could give even more pleasure with some short to medium term aging. Lapierre certainly has a “house style” and this fits squarely into a similar structure as past vintages. The fruit is very high toned (almost verging on VA territory), and there is ample acidity that should carry this wine for years to come. — 5 years ago
