1998 Morgon, Jean Descombes, Georges Duboeuf.

I just popped open a bottle this evening having received some today.

Brilliant, ruby-red color with clarity good enough to read through. Pleasant to the nose, the fruit is immediately obvious, even at 13% alcohol. Sweet on the tip of the tongue, crisp and dry in the rest of the mouth. Berry-like fruit with a strong suggestion of strawberry and cherry. The wine finishes with a hint of spice.

This is one of the best beaujolais I've tried in a long time and I ain't tried nothin' yet.
