Les Betrand Morgon Dynamite 2020

Morgon Dynamite is the confidential cuvée made from the tiny sliver of vines at Grand Pré that reach across the boundary into Morgon. So while the label says Morgon, the soul is definitely in Fleurie

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Gamay Noir with white juice from Morgon appellation of Beaujoulais, France. Average age of the vines: 60 years and over. The vines are cultivated on soils composed of granite sand. Poor, filtering, and acidic soil, making it possible to produce concentrated wines.

Taste Profile: Black cherries, smoky and chiselled. Fine powdery tannins. Kirsch with a hint of clove and cocao. Powerful, yet restrained

Winemaking Process: Carbonic maceration carried out cold (around 10-12°C in the vat) for 20 to 25 days, avoiding any handling. 100% in 225 and 600 liter barrels for 7 to 9 months. Old barrels with a minimum of 6 wines. Racking without filtration and according to the lunar cycle.
