Saw some of above offered today (may be as futures). Reviews indicate that th wood tannins are predominant in some of them now but may soften given five years. What is the experience of forum members? I was considering a couple of the Morgon and Moulin a Vent offerings. Normally I would want to open some soon and some in three or four years from now.

Given that it is Jadot, I'd give the benefit of the doubt to any wood integrating.
I've only had one of his Beaujolais bottlings; the Ch. des Lumieres Morgon from 2005 (tasted in 09) and I thought it was excellent - not woody or heavy at all, but more like Pinot Noir than Gamay (which I don't think is a bad thing - others may differ).
