Do you remember your first taste of Lapierre Morgon, the thrill of a living, no-makeup Beaujolais? Marcel Lapierre helped invent that style as one of Kermit Lynch's "Gang of Four", and his children Mathieu and Camille keep it going: hand-harvested, organically farmed Gamay, natural fermentation, minimal sulphur. This is the classic flagship Morgon, and at over a decade old the 2013 (a cooler, classic vintage) has reached a lovely mature, savory place. Drink now; this is library Beaujolais ready to go.

"Lurid ruby. Black raspberry, violet and smoky minerals on the highly fragrant nose and in the mouth. Juicy, focused and pure, with a hint of blood orange coming up slowly as the wine opens. This lively, focused wine finishes with excellent clarity and length, the supple tannins coming in late. The differences between these two versions of this wine are fairly slight right now but in my experience the no-sulfur bottling shows more brightness for the first two or three years after release while the sulfured rendition holds up somewhat better to cellaring. If cellaring this wine were a priority--and for me it is--I'd opt for the "S" bottling, and in fact I did." —Josh Raynolds

More about Marcel Lapierre

Marcel Lapierre is the father of natural wine, and his domaine remains the blueprint. Organic vineyards, wild yeasts, no sulfur, biodynamic methods since 1981—these weren't fashionable choices then. Now his son and daughter carry on the legacy with 18 hectares of exemplary Beaujolais.
