Côte du Py is the heart of Morgon, a little hill of very old blue stone rocks - the oldest soils of Beaujolais (around 430 millions years old), with a typical blue color.\u003cbr\u003eCôte du Py has been known for centuries for being the best terroir of the village, producing long lived wines with strong structure and flavors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVINTAGE 2016\u003cbr\u003eThe first half of the year was complicated : cool spring, ice storm. But a perfect second half : warm and dry. Late harvests without any rain produced beautiful grapes. A fruity, elegant and greedy vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWines of the Côte du Py are very dark, profound and dense. Classic aromas of red berries, cherry, kirsh. Fruity, structured and mineral in the mouth with graphite flavors and spicy notes of black and white pepper. Wine can age up to 10 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003eHand picked grapes are sorted manually and destemmed for 50 to 70%. Fermentation starts in concrete tanks and lasts for 18-25 days with remontages and pigeages. Then after pressurage starts the aging, for 2\/3 in concrete tanks, and 1\/3 in recent French oak barrels with batonages on fine lies only. After 10 month we do the blending, keeping only the best cuvees and best barrels, and do the bottling.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePairs well with red meat like beef, duck and game (Hare, Dear, Wild Pork,…), cheses.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Review:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"From one of the top producers in Morgon, this bottling combines great terroir and old vines to give a wine that has so much structure. The dry core is still keeping the fruit in check, waiting to let it burst out in blackberry glory. Let this wine age and drink from 2022. - ROGER VOSS\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- \u003cb\u003eWine Enthusiast (April 2020), 94 pts\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dominique Piron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948992393263,"sku":"F0EE483002GYL","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/dominiqua_piron_morgon_cote_py_hq_label.jpg?v=1771486923","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/dominique-piron-morgon-cote-du-py-2017","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
