Tasting Notes
The Metrat wines have always fantastic value given the quality they offer. This wine is packed with bright red fruits offset by hints of darker blackberries with tannins that shape the wine giving it flow and direction. There is a seriousness to this wine that shows exceptional cru Beaujolais can still be found at approachable prices. Lots on offer here. - Pete L
Domaine Métrat is a classic Morgon grower-producer in Beaujolais, focused on articulating the region’s most structured schist-granitic slopes. The estate farms old-vine Gamay parcels, especially on Côte du Py, where soils of weathered granite, schist and iron-rich decomposed stone give Morgon its mineral-lined power. The cellar regime is traditional, with native yeasts, partial or full whole-cluster ferments depending on parcel, minimal sulphur, no filtration, and élevage in neutral oak or foudre to protect site energy, resulting in wines of perfume, mineral tension and dark-fruited transparency without weight.
