Mommessin is a consistently reliable source for wines from all over Burgundy. One of the areas where they excel (besides the famous Monopole Grand Cru Clos de Tart) is in Beaujolais. They have a range of great fruit sources and access to wonderful old vine fruit. On top of that, the 2009 vintage is still the best recorded vintage for the region The Village level Vieilles Vignes (or Old Vine) is sourced from the communes of Montmelas, Saint-Etienne la Varenne, Lantignié and Blacé. The vines are a minimum of 40 years old with some reaching 80 years of age. This is consummate Beaujolais-Villages, with flavors of strawberry, lilac, and It is fully fruited, juicy and delicious. What more could you ask for in this style of wine? Answer: how about a stunning price. Normally, around $12, the supplier was looking to move onto the next vintage and we couldn't resist this tempting drink at an even more tempting price. We don't think you will be able to either. With the holidays just around the corner, this is the perfect wine to stock up on for cocktail parties and family gatherings. (Keith Mabry, K&L Hollywood)
