Morgan continues its streak of terrific Pinot Noir with this 2010 Double L Vineyard bottling. A powerful rendition, redolent of black rather than red fruit, it nonetheless is balanced, well proportioned and not overdone. Add to that, its aromatic beginning, polished tannins and impressive length and you have a classy wine.
