DESCRIPTION
A great, very harmonious Morgon with blackcurrant, plum, violet and old rose aromas. The wine gently coast the palate to reveal successice waves of fresh red berries, especially cherries. A soft, beautifully mature wine. The story of a wine is often closely linked to that of a man. Jean Ernest DESCOMBES was a very popular figure in the Beaujolais, a jolly character, always ready for a celebration. He had managed to set up one of the finest Morgon estates and promoted the “Cru” with great enthusiasm for thirty years. His welcoming cellars were visited by a large number of journalists and members of the wine trade, who came to taste his fine bottles. Those who knew him will never forget him. An outstanding winegrower, Jean Ernest DESCOMBES was also a gifted vinifier. Three quarters of his vines were over 50 years old and were planted in the best “terroirs”, such as Le Py, la Roche Pillée, Les Pillets and Bellevue. The superb nectars produced on the Estate won him and impressive list of awards.
