Babouchka 2019 Magnum, Sébastien Morin

Issued from 70+ year old Gamay vines, from predominantly pink granitic soils with sand.A riper cuvée with warmer exposition and longer sunlight hours, vinified in a more supple and generous way. Babouchka is fully de-stemmed with an extended maceration of 3 months resulting in a velvety, fruit-laden Gamay. Ageing takes place in steel for an additional year and a half following the vintage. Babouchka has a sanguine quality matched with sun-dried raspberry & blackberry, subtle notes of tar, cherry and tart plums. It is full textured and supple, we find that this wine is lifted in its youth. It's rawness and tension make it readily drinkable.
