On the nose, the Château des Jacques Morgon Côte du Py delivers an alluring bouquet of red cherries, highlighted by the unmistakable essence of cherry stone and kirsch. Layers of blueberries and milk chocolate add a further dimension to the aroma. On the palate, the wine is fleshy yet mineral, with a noticeable graphite note that adds structure. Spices like black and white pepper are balanced by a subtle undertone of black tea, creating a robust and full-bodied experience. With its remarkable density and power, this wine is built to age, offering the potential for further complexity as it develops over the next decade or more.
