Morgon Côte du Py Javernières Jean-Marc Burgaud (Domaine) 2020
The wine
The Javernières Morgon is an intense cuvée which goes very well with poultry, lamb or veal and can be drunk in its youth but also benefits from a little time in the cellar. The nose offers floral and toasted notes. The mouth is dense, rich and with good tannic structure with spiced and floral flavours as well as notes of violet.
Domaine Jean-Marc Burgaud was founded in 1989 after the winemaker had finished his viticulture/oenology studies in Beaune. Jean-Marc Burgaud started he business by renting three hectares of vines and selling everything he produced to a negociant. Between 1988 and 2002, he took over the vines belonging to his in-laws (his wife is from Morgon) and then those of his father in 2006. Today, his production output is relatively substantial for the region. Burgaud has 19 hectares of which 13 belong to the Morgon appellation (8 of these hectares are Côte du Py, 4 in Grand Cras and 1 in Charmes), 1 belongs to the Régnié appellation, 4.5 to the Beaujolais-Villages appellation and 0.5 to the Beaujolais blanc appellation (these vines are planted in clay soils).
Jean- Marc Burgaud admits himself that, at the beginning of his winemaking career, he made conventional, ‘textbook' wines, saying “It took me 3 or 4 years to finally understand what it was to make a true Morgon”. These beautiful and historic vines that Burgaud has inherited in Morgon are the beating heart of Burgaurd's estate.
Although Burgaurd has carefully worked these soils for tens of years, he still allows for foliar treatment if the vines desperately need it. Natural yeast is used in the vinification process. Great care is also taken during maturation, where every barrique undergoes a rigorous selection process before being chosen. Burgaud's wines are some of the best examples from the region and are particularly well suited to ageing.
