Clos de Mez
Chateau Gaillard Morgon
Morgon, Beaujolais, Burgundy, France
Classic Mez Morgon nose of deep black cherry, cracked pepper, minerals and blueberry. Smells deep. Palate is chewy, dense and ripe with tons or structure. Very pure and deep as the nose suggests. Superb density and concentration. This is delicious but needs 2-3 hours open and has 15+ years ahead of it. Always epic at Clos de Mez

Inviting like dinner in a dark cold castle. An experience if you're up for a challenge. Mountain Gamay as deeply bleak and structured as I've ever come across.
This is reserved, but if you give it a few hours, a few days, the tannin starts to break, the fruit starts to smile, and the underlying character begins to show.
Deep inky purple core. Smells like graphite, pencil, and cherries. On day three there's plum, chocolate, coffee, and cedar. Strong scaffolding - tannins and minerals that make your tongue move.
Shame on me and my patience because this is way too young.
