The wine
Here in the Morgon appellation, Louis-Claude Desvignes produces a wine grown in the "Montplain" climat. The Gamay grapes grown here enjoy a soil rich in iron oxide, manganese, schist and igneous rock. Yields are controlled, harvesting is performed by hand, vinification is traditional and natural, and the wine is matured for between 10 and 16 months on fine lees. This intense, elegant wine delivers intense notes of red berries and spices such as cinnamon. It is just enjoyable when young as after a number of years' cellaring. It will pair superbly with grilled white meat and autumn vegetables.
Domaine Louis-Claude Desvignes is located in Villié-Morgon and has been managed by Claude-Emmanuelle Desvignes and his brother Louis-Benoît, who represent the 8th generation of the family, since 2002. The vineyard is 14 hectares with vines around 60 years old both in Douby and the Côte de Py. Each plot is vinified separately so that they better embody their individual terroir. Since 2023, Louis-Claude Desvigne has been certified organic. They also undergo a long maturation process. This estate produces beautiful examples of Morgon terroirs and undoubtedly holds a place amongst the best estates in Beaujolais. A brilliant Morgon estate!
