The Cote de Puy must be where the lentils come from. The Cote de Py is better for Morgon.originally posted by drssouth:
Bummer.. we'll see if the Cote du Puy is equally bad

I remember having the Morgon Chateau Gaillard 2000 from Potel-Aviron some years ago. I'll stand up and admit I liked the wine. It seemed to be a wine made for some years in the cellar.

Neither the '05 nor the Cote du Py but for what it's worth here is a note of mine from mid Aug08.
2004 Potel-Aviron Fleurie Vieilles Vignes (Beaujolais) It must be boring wine week. This wine is much more pinot-like than gamay but its devoid of any life. Bold red cherry flavors, silky mouthfeel, silky tannins but only a slight hint of that tart, acidic finish that I really enjoy in a good Beaujolais. No minerality, nothing herbal, no earth, no complexity at all really
