Morgon: Cuvée Jean Claude Aucoeur 2009

The flagship Morgon ‘Cuvée Jean-Claude Aucoeur’, named after the domaine’s founding father, is a denser, darker more structured and age-worthy wine with some game and forest floor notes intermingling with the more primary red fruit flavours.

What others think of this wine...

The Wine Gang - www.thewinegang.com says:

A happy and authentic wine, with lots of bright red berry and bramble fruit. The palate gives more earth and spice than fanciful fruit, but only in a savoury sense, as it still retains that pretty charm that a Beaujolais should always possess. A crowd-pleaser French red, make no mistake. 89 points.
