  Perlant marqué à l'ouverture. Un beau Morgon au fruit encore frais et fringuant, avec une belle minéralité, une bonne concentration. C'est délicieux! Un vin plus complet que le 2005. 91 pts

  No sulfites added. This is still singing. It has lost its baby fat and has coe out trim and supple. Ok, there is the brett and volatility but behind that so much crunchy red and black forest berries and a purity which transcends all the winemaking "errors". Like drinking fresh berry juice - my favorite natural wine so far by a long way. Thanks GG for this lovely present!

  A little spritzy at first, but settles down nicely after an hour or so. Drinking really well, and the fruit / heat is totally in check. Silky smooth with red fruit that's just a little on the dark side. So good.

  J'ai pris ce vin en mars 2012 et lui avait alors trouvé un coté bonbon dans son expression aromatique.
  Heureusement ce coté a disparu, soit du vin ou de mon imaginaire... Il montre ici une belle acidité, une précision remarquable, dans un style subtil et fin. Il n'est pas des plus expressifs, mais il a su développer une belle minéralité en finale, que je n'avais jamais remarquée auparavant. Belle évolution pour un vin sur lequel je ne comptais plus vraiment. J'ai même l'impression qu'il va s'améliorer d'ici deux ou trois ans, car il est encore en retenue, montre une bonne tension et se révèle davantage après quelques heures. 90+ pts

  Blind tasted. Guessed a 2009 thanks for the supple fruit. Elegant, Pinot-like nose. Bright palate with good acidity and red forest fruit. I found this very refreshing and delightful but much less complex than the last time I tried it. It seems to be losing its primal quality and shutting down somewhat.
