Tasting notes
Bright ruby. Intensely perfumed aromas of fresh red/blue fruits, incense, candied flowers and exotic spices; a smoky mineral accent gains strength as the wine opens up. Stains the palate with intense raspberry, cherry and boysenberry flavors that convey a suave blend of power and delicacy. The mineral-driven finish shows outstanding tenacity and smooth, well-judged tannins.

Aromas of cherries, pomegranate and dried flowers mingle with subtle soil tones in a complex bouquet, introducing the 2016 Morgon Côte du Py, a medium to full-bodied, velvety wine with a deep, multidimensional mid-palate, considerable concentration and tangy balancing acids, concluding with a long finish. This is a terrific Côte du Py from James and Sarah Wilding, and it is well worth seeking out.
