The Morgon Eponyme 2017 from Domaine Jean Foillard reveals the granitic soils of Beaujolais. This pure Gamay, raised with precision, unveils notes of cherry and a mineral touch. A lively palate, fine tannins and saline freshness. Ideal for 5 to 10 years, it pairs beautifully with duck breast or fine charcuterie.
Domaine Jean Foillard
Nestled in the heart of Villié-Morgon, this family estate embodies the alliance between tradition and natural winemaking, guided by the passion of Jean and Agnès Foillard.
- Terroir: Granitic and schistous soils of the Côte du Py, the cradle of the finest Morgon wines, where Gamay reveals a unique minerality and rare depth.
- Winemaking: Natural methods, hand-harvested grapes and barrel aging for wines of timeless purity and elegance.
Tasting notes for Domaine Jean Foillard Morgon Eponyme 2017
To the eye: A deep garnet-red robe, of a silky and luminous texture, heralding a wine that is both dense and airy.
On the nose: Aromas of fresh black cherry, wild blackberry and violet, followed by a touch of licorice and a subtle chalky salinity, evoking the granitic soils of the terroir.
On the palate: A lively and precise attack, carried by a taut acidity and a stony minerality, while silky tannins envelop the palate with a velvety texture; the long and persistent finish is marked by notes of candied red fruits.
Serve at 14–16°C in a Burgundy glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 2017
A vintage where balance and freshness come together, offering a harmonious expression of Gamay on the hillsides of Morgon.
- Aging potential: 8 to 12 years, to be kept in a cool cellar (12–14°C) away from light.
