Jean-Michel Dupré Morgon 2015 Cru Du Beaujolais (Grand Cras), $12.74-$29.99, 91+ points, poured a deep cranberry/ruby red color with a very broad meniscus and moderate to heavy tearing.
Fruity aromas of red raspberry and red cherry with furtive jasmine tea were outstanding and a foreshadowing of an oxymoronic delicately strong red wine.
Medium bodied with good acidity and an easy supportive underlayment of fine tannins carried flavors reflective of the aromas.
Finished with a hint of mint, rhubarb, a most lovely subtle wave of Pinot Noir grape-specific flavor, and a perfectly balanced 13% alcohol.
Paired nicely with my fried chicken wings, but better with Buffalo-wings and celery with Blue cheese.
