The 2024 Morgon Côte du Py, raised entirely in concrete eggs, has a lovely bouquet with real energy and mineral-rich red fruit that blossoms in the glass. The palate is beautifully balanced with filigree tannins, a killer line of acidity, plenty of tension and a lively, persistent finish. This is a very classy offering from a challenging growing season. (91-93)

Varietal

Gamay

Gamay, a red grape varietal primarily associated with Beaujolais in France, is celebrated for its vibrant and approachable character. What makes Gamay unique is its immediate charm and versatility, offering wines that are light-bodied yet bursting with flavor. Known for its low tannins and high acidity, Gamay wines are exceptionally food-friendly and often enjoyed slightly chilled. The grape expresses red fruit flavors such as cherry, raspberry, and sometimes a subtle hint of banana. Beaujolais Nouveau, a young and fruity style of wine released just weeks after harvest, exemplifies Gamay’s exuberant nature. Beaujolais Crus, like Morgon and Fleurie, showcase the grape’s ability to produce wines with depth and complexity. Gamay’s allure lies in its quaffable and joyous character, making it a favorite for those seeking easy-drinking reds. The varietal’s adaptability to various winemaking styles and its delightful expression of fruit-forward characteristics contribute to its popularity, offering wine enthusiasts an accessible and delightful entry into the world of red wines.

Appellation

Beaujolais

Beaujolais, nestled in the southern part of Burgundy, France, is a distinct wine region renowned for its vibrant and approachable red wines crafted primarily from the Gamay grape. What makes Beaujolais unique is its winemaking technique known as carbonic maceration, fostering fruity and aromatic wines with low tannins. The region is home to ten crus, including Morgon and Fleurie, each expressing different terroirs and stylistic nuances. Beaujolais Nouveau, released just weeks after harvest, is a celebrated tradition, offering a preview of the vintage's fresh and fruity characteristics. The region's granitic soils contribute to Gamay's expressiveness, yielding wines bursting with red fruit flavors, floral notes, and a delightful acidity. Beaujolais showcases a spectrum of styles, from the light and quaffable Beaujolais-Villages to the more structured crus. Exploring Beaujolais unveils the charm of these wines, reflecting the region's convivial spirit and the versatility of the Gamay grape.

Winery Notes

100% Gamay. Desvignes farms 3 hectares on the Côte du Py, which is famous for its roche pourrie or "rotten rock" of manganese-rich, decomposed schist, which makes for notably structured, long-lived wines. Their parcels average 70 years old and have a cooler northeastern exposure at the top of the Py hill. Viticulture and vinification are consistent across all Desvignes wines. The vines are certified-organic and harvested by hand. The clusters go through a semi-carbonic maceration in closed concrete vats, with a submerged-cap maceration of 12-13 days in the case of the Côte du Py. A very small amount of sulfur (1-2 grams/hectoliter) is added after malo and sometimes at bottling. The wine is aged in concrete and bottled in the summer following the harvest with a light, non-sterile filtration.
