Mommessin Morgon Grandes Mises 2022

Morgon is the heart of Beaujolais, both geographically and spiritually. This historic cru is divided into 6 growing areas, each producing wines capable of extended aging. In the high altitude Cote de Py sub-zone, the soils are predominantly decomposed granite and alluvial clay, which contribute additional body and complexity to the finished wine. After harvest by hand, this wine is produced in concrete vats, where it sees extended aging on the fine lees before bottling. When you open this wine, you will want to decant for up to 45 minutes before serving. Once this wine has some time to open up it delivers notes of crushed blackberry, dried cherry, violet petal, and earth. Drink 2025-2030 with grilled chicken and orzo pasta, ravioli with squash, or New York strip steak.
