"The Morgon Corcelette has a sublime bouquet: very pure and seductive, with intense notes of cherry and crushed strawberry mixed with blueberry. Well-balanced on the palate, with supple tannins, controlled acidity and perfectly integrated oak. Well crafted, this modern-style Beaujolais is well worth the effort. Hats off to Mee Godard for creating one of the best Corcelettes of the vintage. " (Wine Advocate 2017 - Robert Parker)

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Rated (2018 guide) 15/20 (Very good wine)
Domain rated (2021 guide) 3*Stars (High-quality production that can serve as a benchmark in its sector)
About the wine:
Fairly firm on the palate, delicate texture. Good length, tight.
About the domain :
COMMENTS retirement: 5 hectares in Morgon, on the most beautiful lieux-dits, Corcelettes, Grand Cras and Côte de Py! That was in 2013. Since he set up, Mee Godard has been making progress and building. A hectare of Moulin-à-Vent here, a new building there, and wines that continue to refine. The Godard style is all about pure, never sterile, airy yet structured wines that exude their origins. Add to this a greediness that may have been lacking in his earlier vintages, and you have the keystone of the superb 2017s. It's a shame there's so little of it!

About the domain :
Trained as an oenologist but with no winemaking history, Mee made her dream come true when, in February 2013, she single-handedly took over the plots of an unsuccessful winemaker. Her pocket-sized estate is made up of very old vines in the best Morgon terroirs (Corcelette, Grand Cras, Côte du Py). A moulin-à-vent cuvée was added to the range in 2016. Mee Godard's free-spirited, yet well-defined wines are on the rise!

Very fine, lots of fruit with a powdery, mineral edge. Piny finish.
