Morgon Cote du Py 2009

Provenance

The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.

For more detailed information on the lots, please feel free to contact Roland Peens (roland@briceandburnett.co.za). Roland spent many years sharing and enjoying these wines with David Brice and is happy to provide further insight into the collection.

Critics Ratings

"Correct and fruity and as though it still has quite a way to go. Light tannins. A little raw on the end." - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5/20 (Jul 2013)

"The 2009 Morgon Côte du Py has a lovely bouquet with ample redcurrant and strawberry fruit, touches of garrigue coming through with time. There is real presence and amplitude here. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, good weight and density, though it is more rustic than recent vintages, just a bit of chewiness on the finish. Still, this is a fine mature Morgon." - Neal Martin, Vinous, 90/100 (Mar 2024)
