The TOP winemakers of Beaujolais

History of Domaine Marcel Lapierre

Domaine Marcel Lapierre was founded in 1909 by Michel Lapierre, a Beaujolais winemaker who settled in Villié-Morgon. His son, Camille Lapierre, continued the family adventure after World War II. Camille quickly established his forward-thinking vision by marketing his wine directly in bottles starting in the 1950s, a revolutionary idea at the time.

In 1973, Marcel Lapierre, Camille's son, took over the estate and marked a decisive turning point. Inspired by Jules Chauvet, a renowned researcher and winemaker, Marcel adopted a radically different approach: he decided to cultivate his vines without chemical fertilizers and to abandon sulfur additions in winemaking. This approach, then counter-current, quickly positioned him as a pioneer of "natural" wines, while respecting biodynamic methods.

Marcel's passing in 2010 did not extinguish the estate's soul. Today, his children, Mathieu and Camille, perpetuate the family tradition with the same passion and commitment to organic agriculture and winemaking without additives. They thus maintain the legacy of an estate that has profoundly marked the history of Beaujolais and natural wines in France.

Terroirs and Vineyards of Domaine Marcel Lapierre

The 18 hectares of Domaine Marcel Lapierre extend primarily over the Morgon appellation, one of the most prestigious crus of Beaujolais. This terroir is unique, both for its geological richness and its history. The region's soils, predominantly granitic and acidic, are particularly suited to the Gamay noir à jus blanc grape variety, carefully cultivated at the estate.

The estate's vines are planted on poor, well-drained soils, allowing Gamay to express all its finesse and aromatic concentration. Among the emblematic parcels, Côte du Py stands out for its unique geological formation, composed of "blue stones," a rich and homogeneous granite. This terroir gives the wines incomparable aromatic intensity and complexity.

Since 1981, all the estate's parcels have been worked using organic agriculture, a forward-thinking approach at the time. The Lapierre family respects soil life by avoiding chemical herbicides and favoring composting and shallow plowing. This particular care for the soils is reflected in the exceptional quality of the grapes harvested, always by hand and meticulously sorted.

Winemaking at Domaine Marcel Lapierre

Winemaking at Domaine Marcel Lapierre is an art that respects both tradition and nature. The grapes, carefully hand-harvested, are quickly transported to the vat room to avoid any alteration. The carbonic maceration method used here is a signature of Beaujolais. It preserves whole clusters in a CO2-saturated environment, thus favoring aromatic extraction even before alcoholic fermentation. This technique, particularly respectful of the fruit's primary aromas, gives birth to fruity, fresh wines with fine tannins.

The estate also stands out for its refusal to use exogenous yeasts or chemical additives during fermentation. All cuvées are vinified using indigenous yeasts, naturally present on the grape clusters. This choice reinforces the expression of terroir and guarantees authentic wines, without artifice.

Another distinctive feature of Domaine Lapierre lies in the almost total absence of sulfur during vinification. The wines are closely monitored through regular microbiological analyses, and interventions are limited to physical actions, such as pumping over or punching down, to preserve the purity of the juices.

The Cuvées of Domaine Marcel Lapierre

Domaine Marcel Lapierre offers a varied range of cuvées, each reflecting the richness of its terroir and the purity of its vinification.

Morgon: This emblematic estate cuvée, sourced from the finest parcels of Morgon, offers dominant aromas of cherry, violet, and licorice. Domaine Lapierre's Morgon possesses beautiful tannic structure and aging potential of about ten years. It represents the very essence of the Morgon cru, with wines combining finesse and complexity.

Cuvée Marcel Lapierre: Produced only in exceptional years, this cuvée pays tribute to Marcel Lapierre. Sourced from the estate's oldest vines, located on Côte du Py and Le Douby, it expresses intense aromas of black cherry and licorice. This is a rare cuvée, produced in very limited quantities.

Cuvée Camille: Named in honor of Camille Lapierre, this cuvée comes from old vines located on Côte du Py, on poor, stony soils. It is distinguished by long vatting and aging in truncated wooden vats, offering subtle aromas of fresh red fruits and beautiful length on the palate.

Le Beaujolais: This wine, resulting from carbonic maceration, is a lighter and fruitier expression of Gamay, with notes of raspberry and a hint of spice. It is an ideal wine to discover the estate's approach, with finesse and deliciousness.

Raisins Gaulois: A wine of pleasure par excellence, this cuvée is produced from the estate's young vines. Easy to drink, it offers explosive aromas of red fruits and refreshing freshness. It is an invitation to conviviality, while remaining faithful to natural wine principles.

Over the years, Domaine Marcel Lapierre has produced remarkable vintages that have marked the history of Morgon wines. Notable years include: 2015, 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020…
