Les Dégustations Ugo

Fruit-forward, punchy, completely unpretentious, and possessing a remarkable, natural elegance. A Morgon with real character—it’s got a fantastic groove. . Morgon ‘Cuvée Charmes’ – Domaine Famille Melinon . Vintage: 2022 . 🍇: 100% Morgon . 👀: It’s an instant eye-catcher in the glass—a deep, dark, brilliant ruby ​​hue. It’s dense, clinging to the sides with thick, heavy tears that hint at serious power under the hood. . 👃: The nose hits you right away. It’s like black cherry jam having a wild fling with sweet spices. It’s fleshy, redolent of crushed blackberries and fresh peonies, with a touch of smoky minerality—reminiscent of sun-warmed stone after a summer storm. No heavy oak or artificial vanilla here; just pure, raw, vibrant fruit. . 👄: On the palate, the attack is bold, direct, and uncompromising. The texture is silky, yet with enough substance to remind you that this is serious Beaujolais—a far cry from the mass-produced, industrial-style ‘primeur’ wines. The frui...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  A Morgon that reminds you why well-crafted Gamay can absolutely school bottles three times the price. . Domaine Striffling "Grand Charmette" Morgon (Red) . Vintage: 2022 . 🍇: Gamay. Vine age: 80 years . 👀: That color... a black-cherry red leaning slightly toward deep ruby, with a brilliant, almost brazen sheen. It’s clean, lively, vibrant. Not a tired wine. It pulses with energy. . 👃: It opens with an incredibly generous basket of dark fruit: ripe Burlat cherry, wild blackberry, fresh plum. Then, something wilder and earthier emerges—notes of damp forest floor after an August thunderstorm. A hint of fruit pit, a subtle floral touch. And above all, that unapologetic "natural wine" character. . 👄: No unnecessary foreplay. It hits the palate with dazzling, pure, almost crunchy fruit. Gamay playing its most authentic tune here. Supple yet lively texture. It glides beautifully but retains a d...

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  This Morgon Les Charmes is one of those wines that reminds you that modern Beaujolais is playing in a league of its own . Morgon red Cuvée Les Charmes from Domaine Striffling .  Vintage: 2023 .  🍇: 100% Gamay .  👀: The color oscillates between a deep ruby ​​and a vibrant garnet, with that almost electric intensity sometimes found in well-crafted natural wines. It shines brightly. It's clean, lively, and pulsating . 👃: It bursts with fruit. Ripe black cherry. Then come wild blackberry, stewed plum, and behind it, a slightly smoky note. Subtle toasty oak and a hint of bitter cocoa. Black pepper. A touch of dried rose . 👄: Gamay is often expected to be light, easy-drinking, and effortless, but not this one. Here, it packs a real punch, immediately carried by generous fruit. The texture is velvety, almost fleshy. The tannins are present but perfectly ripe, polished just enough to provide...

Beaujolais Villages red Cuvée Gamay de Guigui from Domaine Striffling .  Vintage: 2023 .  🍇: Gamay .  👀: In the glass, it's a vibrant ruby ​​red. A fluid, almost carefree color . 👃: Now this... it's a fruit extravaganza. Fresh cherry, redcurrant, raspberry crushed on a summer tablecloth.But wait... there's a hint of English candy underneath, like a strawberry Tagada that's gotten a bit of a sunburn. And a darker, almost licorice note . 👄: A bold, direct attack, no hesitation. The fruit explodes, but without overwhelming you: it's juicy, crisp, and incredibly easy to digest. The tannins? Supple, almost caressing. It's as if they don't want to disturb, just accompany. And then there's this freshness, a real backbone. It flows smoothly, makes you want to go back for more. The finish? Clean, crisp, with a touch of a...

Then it stretches towards pink peppercorn, fruit candy . 👄: Clean, direct attack, full-bodied fruit. Lovely tension, crisp acidity. Micro-grained tannins.

🍷Eng And Fr Description of the Domain in the first comment  .  🇬🇧A free Morgon — not pumped up, not made-up. Just pure pleasure. . Morgon Red, Cuvée Corcelette from Domaine Striffling . Vintage: 2020 . 🍇: 80-year-old Gamay vines . 👀: Clear ruby red with garnet highlights. Makes you want to dive right in. Like a cherry juice in slow motion. . 👃: It hits you with a mix of fresh red fruits — cherry, raspberry — and that slightly earthy, damp note so typical of Corcelette. There’s also a hint of menthol. In the background, a touch of stone fruit pit, soft almond. . 👄: Juicy, straightforward attack — almost crunchy. The fruit pops, then glides into a supple, fluid texture. There’s depth, there’s honesty. The tannins are soft, the acidity runs clean, and the finish hums with that mineral vibration that recalls the stony slope. You can feel the wine took its time without showing off.  ________________________________ 🇫🇷Un Morgon libre, pas bodybuildé, pas ma...
