2021 Jean-Marc Burgaud, Cote du Py Reserve, Morgon 12x75cl
RP93
"The 2021 Morgon Côte du Py is excellent, offering up aromas of cherries, plums and berries mingled with notions of peony, burning embers and sweet spices. Medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy,... it's seamless and succulent, with melting tannins, lively acids and a long, precise finish. After the richer, more powerful 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 vintages, the 2021 marks a return to a more classically proportioned style, even if Burgaud did a great job of avoiding excess and maximizing the potential of those riper vintages." 93 pts., William Kelley, robertparker.com

RP92
"Notes of wild berries, plums, smoked duck and orange rind introduce the 2021 Morgon Grands Cras, a medium to full-bodied, ample and succulent wine that's supple and sensual, with lively acids and a saline finish. It's another wine that shows the lighter vintage at its best." 92 pts., William Kelley, robertparker.com

"Dark, intense, structured, this is a very powerful wine, a bit of a beast of a Brouilly, yet it is opened and amoratic still. This one will need a little time to fully open up but what a brilliant... effort, much closer in style to a Côte-Rôtie or a 1er Cru Morey-St-Denis from a top vineyard than most Beaujolais you might have experienced. Impressive." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

"A brilliant discovery last year, Raphaël's Morgon delivers once more in 2021. Superb strength and power here, and impressive structure. The vinification without sulfur means the core of fruit is brilliantly pure and expressive; fresh red fruit, cosseted by fine-grained, delicately raspy texture - gorgeous." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

"Wow - what a wine. Crafted fro fruit grown on the Côte de Brouilly's famous pavé bleu (decomposed granite), the Lieu dit l'Héronde is so opened and expressive already, aromatic with raspberry and... black cherry fruit, hints of violets, spice, and on the palate it shows fabulous intensity and structure. Such a powerful wine, very much a Baby Hermitage lookalike, if there is such a thing. And what a back palate- stunning length, and such mineral linearity on that lingering finish. A Superstar, undoubtedly." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

"Dark, yet juicy, nice fine-grain texture, fresh and sapid, so moreish this. Ambitious, too, with the structure to age well for a decade, maybe a decade and a half." (Mr.Wheeler tasting note)

£95 / Case£15.83 / BottleDuty Status: In BondAvailability: Immediate2020 Morgon Les Charmes, Domaine Raphael Chopin 6x75cl
Gloriously perfumed with cherry and some floral notes, it is followed on the palate by a deeply satisfying, silky texture enrobing the juicy black cherry fruit and almost meaty, savoury notes.... Structured enough to blossom over the next 7 years, this is simply delicious right now, and it will continue to improve for the medium term. Drink 2022-2027. (Mr Wheeler tasting note)

"Very pure and ripe cherries at the core here. Quite a serious structure, building grip and savour but retaining ethereal cherry-blossom fruit in the middle.” 16 pts., Tom Parker MW, jancisrobinson.com
