Morgon Jean Descombes

Notes - Often described as the King of Beaujolais, Georges Duboeuf is also its most tireless ambassador. Having pioneered modern winemaking in the region and stoked the fires of the Beaujolais boom with unrivalled vigour, he refuses to rest on his laurels. Duboeuf still tastes hundreds of wines each day, and marshals his enormous range almost singlehandedly. Morgon is the second largest of the ten Beaujolais Crus after Brouilly. and its wines, like those of Julienas and Moulin A Vent, tend to have a have a deeper flavour and more lasting power than some of the other Crus. The Morgon Jean Lascombes is quite full-bodied for a Beaujolais and has aromas and flavours of wild cherries and kirsch plus red and dark berry fruits and a soft . clean finish.
