🏰Jean Foillard's 2015 Morgon Eponyme, from an exceptional Beaujolais vintage, is a vibrant and concentrated expression of Gamay, renowned for its crunchy fruit and mineral depth. Expect a wine with a vibrant ruby hue and an aromatic profile of bright red fruits like cherry and raspberry, intertwined with floral notes of violet and a distinctive crushed granite minerality. The palate should be concentrated and silky, with lively acidity and light, refreshing tannins, leading to a long, flavorful finish that showcases the ripeness and structure of the 2015 vintage.
🍴 This versatile Morgon pairs wonderfully with a range of dishes, from white meats like roasted pork tenderloin or veal, to game birds such as pheasant. It's also excellent with long-simmered meats like beef bourguignon, or with charcuterie and aged Mimolette cheese. For an adventurous pairing, try it with Chinese Roast Duck Pancakes or Vietnamese Pork Banh Mi.
🥂 Ideal for a casual yet sophisticated dinner, a lively gathering with friends, or as a delightful wine to enjoy with a gourmet picnic. Its approachability and complexity make it a crowd-pleaser.
BACKGROUND
Jean Foillard is a legendary figure in Beaujolais and a pioneer of the natural wine movement. Based in Morgon, he champions old vines, organic farming, and minimal intervention. The Morgon 'Eponyme' is sourced from the Les Charmes climat, offering a more delicate, floral, and silky expression of Gamay compared to his famous Cote du Py.
