New Vintage to come
Le vignoble
Thivin
Claude-Edouard continues the work of his father Claude Geoffrey. The level now reached on his Côte de Brouilly makes it the absolute reference of the appellation and places it among the elite of the whole Beaujolais.
Daniel Bouland
"Daniel Bouland, a winegrower from the hamlet of Corcelette, has been seducing us for several years with his Morgons, which have an intensity of fruit and an exemplary roundness, coming from a heritage of very old vines impeccably cultivated and harvested. The fruit does not mask the almost wild minerality of the terroir, but rather exalts it. What's more, the quality/price ratio here is unbeatable! Don't delay."
Jean Foillard
Anyone who is "unhappy" with Beaujolais wines should try Foillard..
Jean-Marc Burgaud
"Jean-Marc Burgaud owns most of his vineyard in Morgon, with parcels located on the Côte de Py, and vinifies very precise wines for aging." RVF Guide 2018
Jules Desjourneys
After having worked alongside the greatest Burgundian names (Jean-Yves Bizot, Christophe Perrot-Minot, Arnaud Ente...) Fabien Duperray decided to bring out his own work by creating the Domaine Jules Desjourneys, in homage to and with the vision of the pioneer of natural wine Jules Chauvet. The wines are immediately impressive in their class, depth and breed, thanks to the titanic work carried out in the vineyard and the cellar. We had never seen wines of such density in Beaujolais in this stunningly aesthetic style...
Louis Claude Desvignes
"Quiconque a posé ses lèvres dans un vin du duo fraternel Claude-Emmanuelle et Louis-Benoît Desvignes a ressenti une émotion particulière. Ici, la recherche esthétique se tourne vers la fine expression des lieux-dits (principalement à Morgon), la matière juste en fonction des millésimes et la capacité de garde, provenant d'une viticulture attentionnée, d'une vinification sensible, loin des dogmes, et d'un élevage épuré sans bois. La troisième étoile est épinglée depuis quelques années sur la veste du domaine, et au regard de la régularité et de la cohérence de la gamme, nous devinons qu'elle y restera de belles années." 3*/3 RVF Guide
Marcel Lapierre
The Marcel Lapierre estate is located in the heart of the Beaujolais, in Villié-Morgon. Its particularity of having adopted organic farming, surprising 30 years ago, has today convinced many followers in the region. All the wines of the estate have the Marcel Lapierre "touch", natural, authentic wines, sometimes without any added sulphite, which draw their intrinsic quality from soils cultivated with the deepest respect for nature.
Mee Godard
"Mee Godard created his estate in February 2013 (...). This small estate of 5.40ha is composed of beautiful terroirs of the Morgon cru, and very old vines (Corcelette, Grand Cras, Côte du Py). We are impressed by the dimension of the wines after only three years of harvesting. (...) The 2016s are limpid, the maturity is expressed differently with fresher and less candied fruit. The mouths are more stretched out and less immediate; the acidities bring a lot of dynamism. Grand Cras has changed its style: it seems less extracted and more Burgundian than the 2015. The Côte du Py is superb. Its fruit expresses blackcurrant and blackberry with a graphite imprint that tightens it." RVF Guide 2018
Paul Janin et Fils
The reference for Moulin-Ã -Vent...
Thibault Liger-Belair
"Devenu une référence incontournable, Thibault Liger-Belair a brillamment repris le domaine familial en 2001. Les vignes sont cultivées en bio et les rendements très maîtrisés.
