Discovering the wine region of Morgon

Morgon is one of the ten Beaujolais crus located on the slopes of the Beaujolais hills, on the west bank of the Saône. The appellation applies only to red wines made from the Gamay Grape. Some white grapes are allowed in the Final blend: Chardonnay, Aligoté and Melon de Bourgogne. Although there are no officially defined quantities for these varieties, Morgon's blend is controlled by limiting the proportion of these varieties that are allowed in the Vineyard to a maximum of 15%.

The wines produced here tend to be denser than those produced in most other regions of Beaujolais. They often have cherry and black fruit characters and a Fleshy, juicy Texture that is not common in Beaujolais wines. Morgon wines age so distinctly and consistently that the name of the region is often used as a verb to describe this: "il morgonne" ("it morgons"). As with most other Beaujolais crus, the wines are generally made using the traditional method of semi-carbonic Maceration known as "macération traditionelle".

Hugh Johnson: ‘Veteran wine books are by modern standards short on facts’

When you have an idea that, in your first flush of inspiration, you think deserves to get beyond the breakfast table, you run straight into the modern dilemma. Is it a Tweet? Is it one for Facebook or Instagram? Should you just try it out on your nearest and dearest, or is there a book in it? A slim volume, or does it need several tomes to expound its profundity? My trade being what it is, and royalties being as modest as they are these days, I’ve rather given up on books. Writing new ones, that ...

The word of the wine: Over-ripeness
