Cuvée Marcel Lapierre Morgon Gamay

I’m not a major natural wine guy. Some I like, some I don’t. These, however, I positively adore. Stunning purity of cherry fruit inflected with fresh herbs and sour cherries and dried flowers on the finish. Electric acidity and faint dusty tannins. Outstanding. Wish I had a few more bottles. Did you know that my iPhone auto-corrects “gamay” to “fanatic?” Ain’t that just perfect?

Leaning in the Brett direction. Nice minerality.

Wonderful.

This is diving out of a plane good. An epic rush of ultra focused blood orange, lavender pastille and excruciatingly intense black cherry, with a mineral driven undertow that pulls you under. The concentration is insane for a wine that’s loaded with acidity and is as balanced as they come. This is change your palate good.

Stunning. Earth, orange peel/zest, cherry, amazing w/ grilled pork shoulder, white beans & herbs, sautéed bell peppers #beaujolais #gamay #deedubcellar

Molly had this 6 years ago

I've loved this wine in the past and have a strong affinity for the producer, but this bottle is virtually undrinkable. Loads of horsey and mousey notes, VA and RS. Stuck ferment? This is my first disappointing Lapierre, so I'll gladly try again.

“S”

Delicious but needs Time to get the depth that will develop.
