LOUIS LATOUR MORGON
The appellation of Morgon is situated entirely within the parish of Villié-Morgon, where the soil sets its wines apart from the other Beaujolais 'Crus'. The percentage of sand and shale is higher here due to the particular way in which the local schist layers have weathered. Consequently the wines are firmer and darker in colour than the other 'Crus'. Dark ruby colour with aromas of black fruits such as blackcurrant and blackberry. The mouthfeel is rich and silky, revealing mouth-watering flavours of black fruits, myrtle, rose and cocoa. A serious and rich Beaujolais of incredible value and style.
Beaujolais
This Pinot Noir is cultivated in the heart of the French Ardèche region, vineyard marked by its cool climate and high altitude. Buis D'Aps is a locality in the town of Alba La Romaine, around which this Pinot Noir is grown, on clay-limestone soils. This cuvée is the fruit of rigorous work: limited yields, thinning at the start of summer, exclusively manual harvest. After a long maceration of 2 to 3 weeks, part of the harvest is aged in oak barrels. Fresh nose, seductive, very cherry, small catchy tannins well coated, floral finish, fresh vegetal, superb character. A beautiful discovery.
