ABOUT THIS WINE
The 2022 Guy Breton Morgon is a classic expression of Beaujolais, made from 100% Gamay grapes sourced from old vines in the Morgon appellation. Guy Breton, a pioneer of the natural wine movement, employs traditional winemaking methods, including whole-cluster fermentation and aging in neutral oak barrels. The result is a wine that is both approachable and complex, with a purity of fruit that is characteristic of the best Beaujolais wines. This Morgon is perfect for enjoying now but has the structure to age gracefully over the next few years. It pairs wonderfully with charcuterie, roasted poultry, or mushroom dishes.
