Domaine de Leyre-Loup Morgon, Beaujolais, Burgundy, France 2023

Description

A vibrant expression of Morgon crafted from old-vine Gamay on granite soils. The 2023 vintage opens with aromas of ripe red cherry, blackberry, and violet, accented by subtle spice and mineral notes. On the palate it is medium-bodied and juicy, with supple tannins, fresh acidity, and a core of pure, energetic fruit. Silky yet structured, it finishes with a touch of earth and granite-driven minerality. A charming but serious Beaujolais that drinks beautifully young yet has the depth to age for 5–7 years.
