The Morgan Prestige comes from a vineyard at an altitude of 260 meters, nestled in a subsoil of schist and rock. The vines here are a remarkable 60 years old, resulting in Gamay grapes with intense flavors and aromas. The grapes are harvested entirely by hand at peak ripeness. In the winery, 70 percent of the grapes are destemmed, after which fermentation takes place. During fermentation, the skins are pressed down daily to extract more flavor and tannins. The wine then matures for 11 months in oak barrels and another 3 months in bottle.
Domaine Anita Morgon Prestige has an intense ruby red color. Aromas of strawberry, earth, and black pepper are prominent on the nose. The palate reveals notes of strawberry, raspberry, and black cherry, complemented by floral aromas. The wine also has a pleasantly spicy flavor, with hints of spices and beetroot. The well-integrated tannins give the wine a pleasant structure and a long finish. A complex and elegant wine with an excellent balance of fruity and spicy notes.
