2017 Jean Foillard '3.14' Morgon, BEAUJOLAIS, FRANCE. 750ml
Vibrant ruby. Highly perfumed, smoke- and mineral-accented cherry liqueur, blackberry, candied licorice and cracked pepper scents show superb clarity and a hint of violet. Stains the palate with sweet dark berry preserve, fruitcake and floral pastille flavors that display unlikely energy for their depth. The mineral and floral notes drive a strikingly long, penetrating finish that features resonating cherry, floral and mineral notes.
