Magnum Cuvée 3.14
The estate's "Haute Couture" cuvée from the oldest vines, in Magnum! A rarity.
This generous, concentrated, rich and dense Morgon expresses wonderfully this great terroir, in this great vintage.
These aromas of fresh black fruits, with these kirsch nuances are very characteristic.
Blend of 100% Gamay noir
Hand harvested with carbonic maceration then aged in oak barrels (no new wood), noSO2 and over a period of 6 to 9 months.
Terroir : Decaying granitic schist and manganese, area located in the south of the appellation.
Bottled without filtration, this cuvée can be lightly sulphited at sub-staging.
The estate:
Jean Foillard is one of those winemakers who have made the reputation of the Grands Beaujolais.
This member of the "bande à Marcel" (Lapierre) produces mainly Morgon wines on 8 hectares.
Of course, he practises organic viticulture and vinifies his wines using the traditional Beaujolais carbonic maceration method.
Little or no filtration and a minimum of sulphur, the result is sincere wines made by an endearing, humble and talented character.
