Georges Duboeuf Domaine Jean-Ernest Descombes Morgon 2018 Review
Rich and heady Beaujolais with spicy notes of rosemary and cinnamon. As the wine opens some cherry notes pop up, along with a hint of dried stone fruit. It’s definitely a funky wine, with slight oxidative notes, but with some time in the glass all the aromas balance out, making it a good wine and cheese night pairing.
