Description

Marcel Lapierre was a leading light in France's natural wine movement and Domaine Marcel Lapierre has been run by Marcel's son Mathieu and daughter Camille since 2010. They continue the ethos of producing one of the finest wines of Beaujolais as naturally as possible. Old vines, natural yeasts and minimal intervention. Another cru Beaujolais, this one from cru Morgon known for its deep coloured red wines and flavours of cherry, violet & liquorice. Light-bodied fruity red wine with some Morgon complexity & a really smooth texture. Rather than the vivid purple of some Beaujolais wines, this is a fairly deep ruby red. Its aromas and flavours are fruity – sweet cherry – with hints of violet and liquorice. The style is light and the tannins low and fine, accompanied by a fruity and complex mouthfeel.
