Charly Thevenet is the son of lauded Morgon producer, Jean-Paul, and is turning into quite the producer in his own right. When heand#39;s not working alongside his father, heand#39;s focusing on this wine, which comes fromandnbsp;a 70+andnbsp;year old parcel of vines in Reignie just below Morgonand#39;s famed Cote du Py. Over the past few vintages heand#39;s switched to using cement tanks for aging, and the wines have an added level of clarity and brightness as a result. This couples some of the drive of his fatherand#39;s style with the freshness of another mentor, Lapierre.andnbsp;

Nice spicy peppery savory. Confusable on the nose with a Syrah from the northern Rhône or a cooler climate. Color clearly #Gamay from #morgon
