Les Iles Feray is mostly sourced from parcels lower on the slopes of their Saint Joseph vineyards and a small portion of young vines further up the slopes. In any vintage, the wine is incredibly agile, pure, and offers up a complicated assortment of bright fruit, spice, floral notes, and crushed rock. The 2021 really dramatizes these qualities. 

The Master of Morgon Magnum Edition:
