Best Beaujolais of 2009?
2009 Domaine Marcel Lapierre, Morgon
This very well could be the best Bojo of the great 2009 vintage. Those who have written this wine off have not tasted mature bottles. This wine has morphed from really good to great. Spicy red berry flavors with a good amount of tannin still there. Serious lip smacking minerals. Really delicate yet powerful. Each sip brings you back for another. A wine of immense pleasure. Drinking well now but is still very young and will reward good cellaring for the next five or so years. Yum. DB.
