Jean Foillard 2022 Morgon Cote du Py Beaujolais France
Jean Foillard 2022 Morgon Côte du Py
Description:
The Jean Foillard 2022 Morgon Côte du Py is a classic, terroir-driven expression of 100% Gamay from one of Beaujolais’ most celebrated vineyard sites. Certified organic and sourced from the famed granitic and schist soils of Côte du Py, this wine combines vibrant fruit with mineral tension, structure, and remarkable finesse.
The 2022 vintage opens with expressive ripe red fruit, floral notes, pepper, and mineral aromas, leading to a medium-bodied palate with fine tannins and excellent tension. A touch more fruit intensity than Foillard’s other cuvées is balanced by the distinctive mineral character and persistent peppery finish that define Côte du Py.
Hand-harvested fruit undergoes traditional whole-cluster fermentation for 3–4 weeks, followed by 6–9 months of aging in used oak barrels that are at least two years old. The wine is unfiltered and made without added SO₂ during vinification, allowing the Gamay and Côte du Py terroir to take center stage.
93 Points Vinous – Praised for its attractive fruit intensity, mineral tension, fine tannins, grip, and persistent peppery finish.
