Though Michel Guignier is a 4th generation vigneron working in the acclaimed Cru of Morgon, his wines have remained off-the-radar (and therefore, priced for everyday drinking!). He’s in the process of converting to fully organic, and he encourages biodiversity by sowing grasses, herbs snd wild flowers between rows. His Beaujolais comes from older vines — 40 years old, with sharp pruning to limit yields, mostly from within the Morgon AOC. It’s deeply flavored and savory with Morgon’s special granitic minerality.

What importer Polaner Selections has to say about this wine...

VINEYARD
The Beaujolais appellation spreads over 30 km between Saône Valley and Haute-Azergues and Haut-Beaujolais hills from North to South. This wine is primarily made with fruit from the Morgon sector.
SOIL
Decomposed granite and crumbly schist referred to regionally as "rotten rock".
VITICULTURE
The vines are 40 years old; they are pruned quite extensively to limit the yield; all the bunches are picked by hand and then very carefully sorted to retain only the fully ripe, whole bunches.
VINIFICATION
Semi carbonic maceration for up to 7 days. Traditional Vinification temperature: 22° C at the beginning of fermentation and 32° C at the end. On pressing, cooling to 22° C to retain as much aroma and flavor as possible.
AGING
In vats on the lees. All terroirs vinified and aged separately.
