Description

Javernieres is a small vineyard within the hill of Cote du Py that is prized by the locals as producing the best wine in Morgon.  This terrific example has some bottle age but drinks beautifully, with concentrated dark cherry and red fruits balanced by a fine mineral character courtesy of the granite soils.  Jean Paul is a very traditional producer who has always worked his vines organically and prefers the Burgundian winemaking practices that are coming back into vogue in Beaujolais.  Restrained alcohol levels are also important to JP and his wines posess a beautiful balance of power and finesse.  Drinking very well now, this fabulous wine will continue to age gracefully for several years yet.

Gamay

The Beaujolais Villages 'Cuvee Six' from Caves De Julienas Chaintre just gets better and better with each vintage, showing soft, rounded red fruits and vibrant cherry flavours.  Complex enough to make one sit up and think yet easy going and supple at the same time.  Great for lighter lunches and it can also be chilled lightly when the weather warms up!

2018 Brunello di Montalcino Pieve Santa Restituta, Gaja, DOCG

Sangiovese

Gaja's Brunello di Montalcino shows notes of juniper berries, liquorice and sweet wood on the nose. It has a very clear expression of sweet and ripe fruit, opening on the palate, with notes of spice and earthy aromatic herbs. This wine has remarkable texture, mouth-filling fruit and a very good length.
