Javernières sits just below the famous Côte du Py, but it’s no understudy. With its mix of deep clay over schist and decomposed granite, it produces wines that are darker, more grounded—less fire, more earth. And in the hands of Domaine Desvignes, who farm organically and vinify with a gentle but deliberate touch, it becomes something quietly profound.

The 2023 isn’t showy—it doesn’t need to be. There’s density here, sure, but also restraint. Structure without weight. A kind of depth that doesn’t demand attention, just earns it slowly. You feel the place more than you taste it. The vines are old. The soil speaks.

It’s the kind of cru Beaujolais that makes you pause—not because it’s trying to be something else, but because it knows exactly what it is.

What importer Bowler Wine has to say about this wine...

100% Gamay. From 3 hectares of vines in the historic Morgon lieu-dit of Javernières at the foot of the famous hill of the Côte du Py. The soils are much heavier with deep, iron-rich, red clay here versus the more schistous "rotten rock" up the Py hill. The vines are certified-organic, are 40 years old and have a full eastern exposure. They are harvested by hand. Generally around half of the bunches are left whole with half destemmed and put together into closed concrete vats for a partly carbonic fermentation; maceration is 13-14 days with a submerged cap and no punchdowns. A very small amount of sulfur is added after malo and sometimes at bottling. The wine is aged in cement tank for 9 months and bottled with a light, non-sterile filtration.
