The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Guénaël Jambon is at the forefront of Beaujolais' remarkable revival, contributing to the renewed prestige of this historic region. In Morgon, the home of age-worthy wines, he creates reds of striking intensity, depth, and finesse. The Gamay grape achieves true distinction here, thriving on slopes of granite and volcanic schist, which lend these wines their unique complexity and vibrant minerality.
Wine Sensational! The 2023 Red Morgon Côte du Py bursts with vibrant aromas of stone fruit, raspberry, and redcurrant, balancing ripe, fresh flavours with remarkable finesse. Its rich, well-structured palate is built around dense, juicy fruity flavours, subtly enhanced by 20% oak aging. While this powerful yet composed wine already shows impressive maturity and freshness, it promises even greater depth with time. Gamay truly shines here! Rated 95/100 by the Selection Committee.
Vinification Hand harvested, aged 10 months, 80% in vats and 20% in oak barrels.
