Tasting notes
Brilliant ruby-red. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes fresh red fruits, Asian spices and minerals, along with an exotic touch of incense in the background. In a distinctly elegant style, offering appealingly sweet raspberry, lavender pastille and spicecake flavors that show very good depth as well as finesse. A spine of juicy acidity adds support and cut to an impressively long, floral-driven finish that's shaped by silky, harmonious tannins.

The 2016 Morgon with sulfur includes 2.8 grams per liter this year. The bouquet is similar to the Non-Sulphité version, perhaps with the fruit a little darker with a touch of blood orange. The palate is very well balanced with a rounded texture, the acidity lending tension and sharing the purity of the Non-Sulphité version on a harmonious finish, with just a hint of spice lingering on the aftertaste. To be frank, there is not a great deal of difference between the two cuvées this year, so take you pick depending upon your aversion to sulfur.
Linear and tight with beautiful fruit and freshness and a lovely background of fruit and acidity.
