M. & C. Lapierre à Villié-Morgon
Morgon Gamay
Morgon, Beaujolais, Burgundy, France
Barely a 9.0. Perfectly pleasant Morgon but for $40, I could buy far better red wine.

This wine is drinking very well now after some years of ageing. Fruit depth of dark raspberry and cherry, a bit of smoke, pleasant herbs and a bit of oak. Good complexity and intensity, Lapierre lives up to its status on this one.

A merry #morgon Christmas! Juicy cranberry, raspberry and grape with a hint of savory soy. Edges a little rough but very easy going down. First Lapierre, not sure if I “get” the hype yet…

The “n” (non-sulfur) version. Black cherry, pomegranate, rose, slightly wild, lots of upside 🔥

Nice wine - but even with a 3 hour decant, doesn’t quite come together as well as previous vintages - doesn’t have the purity or chisel or seamlessness that would take it to the next level. Still has great fruit and a very nice finish.

Deep, juicy and electric. Had this wine for the last 5 years and just love this vintage.
