"Louis-Claude Desvignes traces its lineage through seven generations, presently helmed by the siblings Claude-Emmanuel and Louis-Benoît Desvignes. The estate has always encompassed an innovative spirit: the family was one of the first in Morgon to “estate bottle” back in 1955...and today, the team has redefined what “traditional, age-worthy” Beaujolais in the face of climate change can look like...
The 2022 vintage is a testament to the Desvignes family's mastery, achieving phenolic ripeness while maintaining vibrancy from start to finish. Elegant in their sense of ease, every wine from this vintage comes highly recommended."
Kenna Wells, The Wine Advocate
This magical Morgon estate;
- Specialises in ageworthy Morgon that (along with Moulin a vent) is the longest-living of the Beaujolais Crus.
-Has an average vine age of 65y!
- Is organic
- Picks its healthy pristine fruit later than most of its neighbours.
-Has lengthy fermentations with many de-stemmed berries to give more extract, weight and flavour
- Has won over the wine media with these 2022's and has a raft of great notes, praise and comments. Cheers, Randall.
