92-94 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "Taken from barrel, the 2022 Morgon Côte du Py Cuvée Camille has a brooding intensity on the nose: vivacious red fruit mixed with blackberry and light licorice scents. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy red fruit, fine-boned tannins and shows good density on the finish. Drink: 2026-2048. (May 2023)"
92 points Kenna Wells (Wine Advocate): "From the western side of the Côte du Py, the 2022 Morgon Cuvée Camille is a step up in intensity and finesse with aromas of baking spices, red and black cassis, marionberry and lilac petals. Aged in 216-liter used oak barrels, it is medium to full-bodied and rounded on the palate, with a vibrant fruit profile—notes of red plums and tangy elderberry. The tannins are polished but distinct and surely will assimilate nicely over time. As the fruit fades to reveal a trace of fennel, the rounded body simultaneously narrows with crisp salinity that builds in intensity throughout the finish. Drink: 2024-2032. (5/30/24)"
From 50-75-year-old vines along the Cote du Py the ‘Cuvee Camille’ has classic Morgon characteristics of low tannin and bright acidity paired with complex earth tones and red fruit. The Côte du Py is Morgon’s finest growing area with gentle granite filled slopes that make for a silky, lively expression of Gamay.
