Morgon //​ Kewin Descombes

Rich aroma of sweet dark-red fruit but also quite evolved and expressive, with a sweet almost floral note as well as the fruit. The fruit on the palate is rich and generous, counterbalanced by excellent freshness. Delicious in a completely unpretentious and joyous way. The tannins are still present but becoming mellow.
