Michel Guignier’s Morgon Vieilles Vignes 2023 comes from old Gamay vines rooted in Morgon’s decomposed granite soils. Farmed organically with a deep respect for biodiversity, the fruit is fermented with native yeasts and minimal sulfur, preserving vivid energy and terroir expression.

Aged in neutral wood, it’s a pure, soulful cru Beaujolais that highlights Guignier’s gentle touch — bright, layered, and true to Morgon’s storied hills.

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.
