Marcel Lapierre Morgon "Cuvée Camille"

37,30 €

Lapierre's "Cuvée Camille" Morgon comes from the western part of the famous Côte du Py, the most famous slope of Morgon. And if until now the discussion of Beaujolais has not gone much beyond the region's famous cru, the new generation is very much looking to the terroir and its expression through single-vineyard vinifications such as the "Cuvée Camille". Compared to the top producer's classic Morgon, it is a clear step-up in both intensity and finesse with roasted spices, vibrant red fruit mingling with black berry and lilac aromas. Fantastic palate, medium-bodied with crisp fruit, fine "polished" tannins and beautiful concentration through to the finish. A Morgon of a different dimension that will age beautifully for many many years.

More info

"Cuvée Camille" comes from 50-75 year old vines on the slopes of the most famous terroir of Morgon. The distinctive Côte du Py is the best growing area within the cru of Morgon with granite-filled slopes that create a silky, and unparalleled vibrant expression of the Gamay variety. Combined with old vines, careful organic farming and gently interventionist winemaking, the "Cuvée Camille" is the ultimate expression of a Morgon. The philosophy is exactly the same in winemaking as the classic Lapierre Morgon but with a longer maceration time in the 216 lt conical-shaped barrels used. This cuvée began production in 2013 with the return of Camille Lapierre, (Marcel's daughter) to the estate and is a tribute to Camille's grandfather Camille and Marcel Lapierre's father.
