Domaine de la Pirolette Saint-Amour 2022

"This bottling from the celebrated climat of Corcelette is the first Desvignes wine from sourced, organically farmed fruit." —winemaker

"With a beautiful intense purple color, this Brouilly opens with floral notes, black fruits and spices. The mouth is dense, elegant with notes of blackcurrant and peony. The tannins are melted and silky. We also find the mineral touch that characterizes the wines of Pierreux." —winemaker

"This is a wine to keep; its character resulting from the soil composition (The cote du Py hillside near the tiny village of Morgon).This is the most typical wine of this appellation, thanks to its rich soil of blue stones coming from the disintegration of schist." —winemaker

"100% Gamay. This bottling from the celebrated climat of Corcelette is the first Desvignes wine from sourced fruit. They harvest the fruit by hand from a 0.8-hectare plot of 50-year-old vines on sandy pink granite soils on a south-facing slope (see the dark swatch on the gorgeous label) in the western part of Corcelette near the border of the climat of St. Joseph." —importer

"The 2019 Morgon Grand Cras offers up a rich bouquet of licorice, blackberries and cherries, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping palate built around ripe, powdery tannins and succulent acids. Derived from 55-year-old vines planted in clay-rich alluvial soils, it saw 12 days of maceration followed by 10 months of élevage in cement tank." —winemaker

"Indulgent nose with Gariguette strawberry, cherry and blueberry suffused with fragrances of violet, liquorice and white pepper. Full-bodied and juicy in the mouth. It would be the ideal red wine to celebrate a wedding as all these magic moments that makes life beautiful." —winemaker
