Domaine de la Pirolette Saint-Amour 2020

"Intense dark crimson color. The nose is fruity, elegant with a nice freshness. A frank and clear attack. The wine is greedy and powerful with fine tannins. Cool finish with sustained fruit." —winemaker

"Brilliant with fine appearance and lasting perlage. Peach-coloured. Distinctly flowery bouquet with scent of mixed berries, mainly currants and wild strawberries. Fresh, with a good acidity, harmonious, delicate and persistent." —winemaker

"Having begun our venture in the Blaye region with Chateau Puynard in 2016, just five years on we received the keys to Chateau Magdeleine Bouhou In January 2021. Having admired the terroir here for some time, we set our sights on broadening our offering by adding another Blaye vineyard, but which offered a slightly different terroir and aspect to that of Puynard. Both vineyards have their own character, and we feel with both properties together, we have a strong offering that showcases the Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux appellation very well." —winemaker

Wine Anthology Team Review- A right bank Bordeaux that delivers with delicious flavor and exquisite, smooth drinkability. Perfect for a "daily drinker" this bottle has just entered it's "sweet spot" going past 5 years in the bottle. Pop it open, give it a little time, and enjoy one of our finest under $15 bottles. Cheers!

"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
