Red raspberry, rhubarb, and smoked meat pungently scent Chateau des Jacques’s 2009 Morgon cuvee, then come to a saliva-inducing and tartly-invigorating palate – one of this estate’s 2009 that seems to defy the vintage norms – leading to a vivacious finish in which white pepper, salt, smoked meat, and herbs alternate with sappy, snappy red fruits. There is a hint of extraneous wood resin that needs to integrate, and this is one 2009 that could benefit from putting on a bit of fat – which might happen – but is already a delight and sure to remain so for at least 3-4 years. WA 89-90+
