2019 Antoine Sunier Morgon Gamay Red Wine | 92 Points Wine Advocate
Discover the rich complexity of the 2019 Antoine Sunier Morgon Gamay, a standout from Beaujolais’ iconic Morgon appellation. Crafted from century-old vines in the esteemed Grand Cras sector, this wine embodies the terroir’s mineral-rich soils and cooler microclimate, offering a harmonious balance of elegance and power.
Aroma & Flavor Profile
This Burgundy gem opens with a captivating bouquet of peonies and orange zest, complemented by ripe berries, plums, and subtle spice notes. On the palate, it delivers a medium-bodied structure with lively energy and a saline finish—a hallmark of Morgon’s unique terroir. While approachable now, its refined tannins and vibrant acidity promise cellar-worthy potential for years to come.
Why This Wine Stands Out
Antoine Sunier’s meticulous winemaking highlights Morgon’s signature tension between fruitiness and minerality. Unlike many Beaujolais wines that fade quickly, this bottling strikes a rare balance between earlydrinkability and aging grace. Perfect for pairing with charcuterie boards or roasted game birds, it’s equally at home at casual gatherings or refined dining experiences.
Award-Winning Quality
Rated 92 points by Wine Advocate for its “aromatic precision” and “melting texture,” this wine is a testament to Antoine Sunier’s commitment to preserving Morgon’s heritage while pushing its boundaries. Whether you’re a Burgundy enthusiast or exploring Beaujolais for the first time, this bottle offers exceptional value and sophistication.
