CHERRY & RED STONE FRUIT, FIRM & FRAGRANTLY FLORAL This outstanding ambassador for the lofty heights of Cru Beaujolais shares with its slightly more concentrated colleagues from Morgon and Moulin-à-Vent a fiercely firm freshness. Hailing from the Moriers climat (a prized cru within this possibly most prized of all Beaujolais crus), 45-year old vines struggle to thrive in the austere granite soil they call home, whose notable pink hue is an almost-visible artifact emerging through the vibrantly berryish, resplendently spicy finish. Rich and refreshing! Serving Suggestion: Salty Virginia or Black Forest-styled ham on pumpernickel w/ Muenster w/ lingonberry jam. Creamy cow’s milk cheeses & fresh fruit.
