2015 TOP 100 WINES | Rank #61
Jean Foillard has the reputation as one of the very best producers ever in Morgon and the 2013 'Cuvee Corcelette’ is an clear example why. This absolutely stunning Gamey is organiclly farmed from 80-year-old vines planted to sandstone soils. It instantly bursts open with gorgeous aromas of wild berries, dried floral, spices, licorice and minerals, which all come together in the glass. This continues to deliver on the palate with its beautiful soft, silky texture, as well as remarkable finesse, while remaing focused and balanced all the way through the finish. This age worthy red is already extremely impressive and there is no doubt it will be even better after it has time to develop. (Best 2019-2032) - February, 2015 (JD)
