Burgaud Pie

Jean-Marc Burgaud Morgon Côte du Py 2010
13% abv. C. half a year has passed since my last taste of this. Then I said that this will need time (as Burgaud always does), and I was right. But this has opened and softened enough that I am still glad I wasn't able to stop myself from opening one. This is a young, primary wine with still rather tight tannins for a Beaujolais; but it is just so incredibly beautiful! It already has a strong Pinot Noir -like cherry aroma - very primary. Lovely ripeness and lovely freshness combined; and then comes a palate-cleansing hit of tannin. It is still hard despite all the fruit. And the fruit sensations are still primary and show no signs of age. But this is still a wine of breathtaking purity. Not to be opened now unless you like plenty of structure; I am confident this will turn into a beauty
