Cru Morgon - Vins Perrachon
It is a sumptuous wine, masculine, with a pronounced personality, well worth keeping 3 years minimum.
The Revue du Vin de France June 2010 has released its special edition on the 2009 Vintage, in which it qualifies it of "Grande Reussite". You can see our recent awards on the Reference page.
