Jean Foillard helped mainstream both the natural wine movement and the realization that Beaujolais can be complex and a long-lived wine.  Much like the Cisterian monks documented the best slopes and soils of Burgundy over centuries, it is widely agreed upon that Côte du Py is the heart and soul of Morgan. The wines are bold, spicy and peppery in addition to the fresh Gamay characteristics that Jean Foillard has become famous for. Whole cluster fermentation for 3-4 weeks and up to 9 months in neutral barrels has been the winning formula for decades. Few wines define a region like Jean Foillard's Vieilles Vignes Côte du Py. Regarded as the best wine in the entire AOC of Morgon, year in, year out Foillard's top Morgon takes the critic's awards and the 2023 vintage is no different. The Vieilles Vignes manages to be both generous and expressive in its youth whilst evolving with grace and charm over the following decades to give pleasure year after year.
