Tasting notes
Symbol of a time when the arts of the Kingdom of France were at their peak, this wine " Ballet des Plaisirs " refers to the ballet of Jean Baptiste Lully, contemporary of the founder of the Château: Jean François de La Chaize d'Aix.
Commented by Olivier Poussier:
Color : A beautiful dark ruby color with purple reflections
Nose : The nose is primary but defined by a beautiful ripeness of the grapes and a fresh imprint brought by the resonance of the soils. It's a delicate nose.
Palate : The palate shows good scope while being well maintained by a graphite frame that tightens and gives length. The fruit remains juicy. The material is balanced, homogeneous without excess richness. It is a classic Morgon without being the most concentrated. It seduces with its friendliness and digestible texture.
Service temperature : 57°F
