Morgon Côte du Py from Domaine Laurent Perrachon is a red wine produced in the prestigious Beaujolais Cru appellation, Morgon. The "Cru" status guarantees higher quality and unique characteristics compared to Beaujolais Villages wines.
The grapes for this wine come from the Côte du Py vineyard, located on steep slopes with granite soils. This specific soil condition contributes to the mineral finesse and complexity of the wine. The vineyard consists of 60 year old vines, resulting in concentrated grapes with intense aromas and flavors.
The grapes are harvested by hand, allowing selection for quality. The fermentation then takes place at a low temperature in concrete tanks. After fermentation, the wine matures for 12 months, partly in concrete tanks and partly in large wooden foeders.
Morgon Côte du Py has a bright, purple-tinged color. The nose is complex and elegant, with aromas of ripe red fruits such as cherries, plums and raspberries, combined with floral notes, hints of spices and mineral nuances. The taste is powerful and structured, with firm tannins, fresh acidity and a long, persistent aftertaste. The wine has a complexity that further develops during maturation.
Morgon Côte du Py is an excellent accompaniment to various dishes. Perfect with grilled meat, stews, game dishes and hard cheeses. The wine can also be paired with poultry, provided the sauce is a bit stronger.
