Olivier Depardon Domaine de la Beche Morgon Vieilles Vignes, Beaujolais, France 2022

Very old vines (70 to 100 years old!) of Gamay Noir growing on a terroir of blue shale and rotten rocks. A nose of black cherry and fresh raspberry with spicy notes. On the palate, a beautiful aromatic complexity, power, fat and substance are present. Surprising balance and delicacy, mineral and without heaviness with well-integrated tannins.
