2006 Chignard Fleurie Les Moriers 12.5%
Curious persimmon aroma on bottle neck. In the glass, violets and sour cherry, quite pleasant. Mouthfeel is surprisingly frizzy, like some young rieslings can be, and the frizz does not abate with time. I find that a little offputting in a red. But what disappoints me is the hollow mid-palate followed by the short finish. This has nice aromatics and has the merit of not trying to be a burg but is not special enough to hold its own against the Morgons I have tried recently. But would make a great poolside sipper on a balmy day.
