Grown on south-facing, 50 year old vines grown on the pink granite soils of the Corcelette vineyard, this is always the most easily approachable and charmingly fruity of the Desvignes stable of wines. Packed with raspberry and redcurrant fruit flavours, this is crunchy, refreshing and very difficult to put down!
“Bright and charming, the 2021 Morgon Corcelette bursts with aromas of plums, raspberries, rose petals, vine smoke and loamy soil. Medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny, with bright acids and melting tannins, it’s another of the more immediate, giving wines in the range.” 92/100pts Wine Advocate
“Louis-Benoît Desvignes reported yields averaging 23 hectoliters per hectare in the 2021 vintage, mainly due to losses from frost, which made for uneven ripeness down the line. The domaine accordingly destemmed more than usual, opting for macerations lasting 12–13 days. The results remind Louis-Benoît increasingly of the 2016 vintage, a very successful year in a more classical register at this address. As I’ve written before, this 13-hectare domaine produces some of the longest lived and most serious wines in the Beaujolais. Old vines, farmed organically and harvested late, produce grapes that see traditional winemaking with a submerged cap. The result is a range of inky, saturated reds with plenty of character and structure, and the top cuvées generally have no trouble evolving for two decades.” William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
