A truly excellent Beaujolais, this classic Morgon offers a silky texture and lovely sweet fruit balanced by uplifting acidity. The Corcelette vines range from 65 to 80 years old (older than most people who will drink the wines!) and they are sustainably farmed and hand harvested. Part of the cuvée was aged in tanks, and the wine is unfiltered.
