"The 2013 Morgon âVieilles Vignesâ from Château Grange Cochard is an excellent example of the vintage, but it is a wine that really deserves a bit of bottle age to fully blossom before starting to drink it with wild abandon. The pure and very classy nose offers up a nascently complex mĂŠlange of black cherries, cassis, espresso, dark soil tones, a bit of bonfire, fresh thyme and a very discreet touch of spicy wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and potentially quite sappy at the core, with a bit of ripe tannin, good acids and lovely soil signature on the long, complex and nicely structured finish. Like the 2013 CĂ´te du Py, this will want a couple of yearsâ worth of bottle age to blossom, but it too will be excellent when it is ready to drink."
