Here too the nose is markedly restrained with its discreet aromas of essence of red cherry, raspberry, earth and subtle pepper hints. The delicious and quite supple if punchy medium weight flavors possess a lovely texture while exhibiting fine length on the firm, serious, compact and built-to-age finale. This bold and moderately rustic effort will need at least 5 years of keeping before it should be ready for prime time. Worth considering provided you intend to cellar it.

The 2021 Morgon Sulphité has a slightly brighter nose, more red fruit (Morello cherries and raspberry) commingling with blood orange. I find less of the oyster shell element juxtaposed against the Non-Sulphité iteration. The tannins are very fine here, with perfect acidity. It is fresh and brittle in texture, with so much vivacity towards the crunchy finish. Wonderful. Initially, I preferred the Non-Sulphité but upon further consideration, this seems to convey more amplitude. Score: 94 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2024-2040 01 March 2023 |
