Pey 2022 Morgon   

2022 Domaine Jonathan Pey Morgon, Beaujolais, “Belleville”

San Francisco Wine Panel Score 94 Points

This fine Beaujolais impresses with old vine richness, regional focus and a dinner worthy style. The nose offers a combination of gripping minerality, piqaunt fresh fruit, firming tannin and fine density which light up aromas of cranberry, lingonberry, rose petal, pink peppercorn, mace and suggestions of crushed rock. The fruit is as piquant and as rich on the palate, where a sinewy texture reflects the confluence of the wines grip and concentration, while the flavors take center stage. The finish lingers with a cutting clarity that makes present drinking a pleasure, although the wine is likely twelve to twenty-four months away from its peak.
