Manoir du Carra Morgon Côte du Py 2022
£11.50
The vines from the Côte de Py are located on the slopes of an extinct volcano above the village of Villié-Morgon. It is this volcanic soil over a layer of schist and granite that makes wines from this some of the most long-lived in Beaujolais. The deepest purple of all these wines, there is an intense black cherry nose which leads into a concentrated mouthful of crunchy black cherry and cranberry fruit, supported by smooth tannins with fresh acidity and good length. A perfect match for duck. This is the one wine that can be kept for up to 5 years.
