Description
| Notes | |||
| "100% Gamay. With some of them going back to 1912, Desvignes has vines averaging 65 years old in the historic Morgon lieu-dit of Javernières at the foot of the famous hill of the Côte du Py. The soils are much heavier and stickier with iron-rich red clay here versus the more schistous "rotten rock" up the hill. The exposure is also more eastern exposure; the wines tend to be softer and more red-toned and elegant. The fruit is hand-harvested and partly destemmed (for the younger vines) and vinified semi-carbonically with a maceration of approximately 12 days in tank. The wine is aged in concrete vats for 9 months before bottling. Annual production is approximately 600 cases." —importer |
| Critical Acclaim | |||
| "The 2020 Morgon Côte du Py Javernières is brilliant, unwinding in the glass with aromas of wild berries, spices, rose petals, loamy soil and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with impressive reserves of ripe tannin and sapid fruit, it's seamless and lively, concluding with a long, resonant finish. As ever, this is built to age, and it will reward patience, even if its youthful charms are considerable." —Wine Advocate |
