Description
- The appellation of Morgon is situated entirely within the parish of Villie-Morgon where the soil
sets its wines apart from the other 'Crus' since the percentage of sand and shale is higher
here due to the particular way in which the local schist layers have weathered. Consequently
the wines are firmer and darker in colour than the other 'Crus'.

Wine tasting
- Tasting NoteOur Morgon 2020 has a deep color with garnet hues. Its nose, with a strong aromatic intensity, reveals aromas of black cherry and blackberry. Ample and generous, its mouth presents elegant tannins as well as aromas of black fruits and licorice. The finish exposes a very long persistence.
