Domaine Jean Foillard
A family estate rooted in Villié-Morgon, where Gamay expresses itself authentically on granitic terroirs.
- Terroir: Granitic and schistous soils of Beaujolais, notably the Côte de Py hillside and the lieu-dit Corcelette, shaping wines of a distinctive minerality.
- Winemaking: A natural and respectful approach – whole clusters, indigenous yeasts, aging in used foudres to preserve the purity of the fruit.
Tasting notes for Domaine Jean Foillard Morgon Corcelette 2018
To the eye: A brilliant ruby robe, of a silky and luminous texture, like a reflection of polished granite under the sun.
On the nose: Aromas of fresh red flowers – peony, violet – followed by wild raspberry and a saline touch reminiscent of crushed granite, with a discreet hint of licorice in the background.
On the palate: A precise and taut attack, carried by a lively acidity and a chalky minerality, while fine tannins envelop the palate with a velvety texture; the long and floral finish leaves an impression of purity and elegance.
Serve at 14–16°C in a Burgundy glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 2018
A generous vintage, where the ripeness of the grapes is allied with preserved freshness, offering a perfect balance between fruit and structure.
- Aging potential: 8 to 12 years, to be kept in a cool place (12–14°C) away from light.
