Still very young though

energetic and thoughtful wines from their numerous noncontiguous estate vineyards

dramatic yet a little less oaky than I'd seen in these wines before

2013 Jean-Michel Dupre "1935" Morgon Still very young thoughBright magenta. Potent dark berry, cherry pit and licorice scents, along with hints of musky herbs and smoky minerals. Juicy and sharply focused, offering bitter cherry and cassis flavors that slowly become sweeter with air. Shows very good depth and structure and finishes with building tannins, an echo of sappy dark berries and very good, chewy persistence. (JR)
