Producer
The 1.9-hectare vineyard is located on the hill known as “Colline de Mouilles”, benefitting from southern exposure. Vines are cultivated on sand granite soils on a steep 60% incline. Coffee and cocoa characters complement confected red fruits and cherries. It is medium-bodied, supple with fresh cherry flavours and has a nice mid-palate weight.
Chateau de Durette Les Charmes AOP Morgon
Les Charmes comes from a two-hectare plot of 40 to 60-year-old vines in Morgon on schist and decomposed granite. This is a medium-bodied wine with solid structure. On the nose, violet and subtle meaty aromas interplay. The palate is not hugely expressive, but has great balance with mid-palate weight, supple tannins and a harmonious acidity. This is a wine with some depth and cellaring potential.
