Georges Descombes Morgon Vieilles Vignes 2013

Dark ruby color. Nose of red berries, flowers, smooth spices, then earth and tobacco. Explosive sweet red fruits on the palate with cranberries, dried flowers, spices, it’s intense, chewy, there is acidity, lenght and so enjoyable. When Gamay grapes are shaking you, it’s because it’s that type of wine! Excellent (91)

Made of Gamay planted on granit soils. Natural winemaking, no sulfur added. Aged in large oak barrels. Alcohol level of 13%

Perrot-Minot Morey-St-Denis 1er cru La Riotte Vieilles Vignes 2002

Domaine Perrot-Minot Morey-St-Denis 1er cru La Riotte Vieilles Vignes 2002

The wine is quite dark. Up front spices aromas, but also have fruit, some green notes coming from the inclusion of whole cluster and oak still shows a bit. Chewy mouth feel with fruit flavors, load of spices, long and dense finish with a lot of structure left in the wine. Tasted blind, I was guessing a 1er Cru from 2005. Very good+ (90)
