"A Morgon that's already 'morgoning'!"

"Named 'Winemaker of the Year' in the 2023 Guide, Franck Chavy has earned another Favorite award, Favorite the one he received for his 2020 Les Granites Rosé. This award goes to the sulphite-free version of his Morgon, made from vines averaging 70 years old grown on 1 hectare of granite soil. A complex and distinguished wine that evokes kirsch, humus, and floral notes on the nose. This complexity and elegance are extended by a full-bodied, rich, and dense palate, supported by a stimulating acidity that lengthens the finish and adds to its dynamism and balance. Unstoppable.” (Le Guide Hachette 2026)

Nose

Captivating in its complexity: fresh and rich, with notes of stone fruits (vine peaches, cherries...)

Palate

Well-structured and fruity, the refined tannins lend the wine a rich, beautiful roundness; as the wine opens up to oxygen, the palate becomes rounder and the aromatic profile evolves gently

About the wine:

Named Winemaker of the Year in the 2023 Guide, Franck Chavy has earned another Favorite award, Favorite the one he received for his 2020 Les Granites Rosé. This award goes to the sulphite-free version of his Morgon, made from vines averaging 70 years old grown on 1 hectare of granite soil. A complex and distinguished wine that evokes kirsch, humus, and floral notes on the nose. This complexity and elegance are extended by a full-bodied, rich, and dense palate, supported by a stimulating acidity that lengthens the finish and adds to its dynamism and balance. Unbeatable.

About the estate:

The son and grandson of winemakers, Franck Chavy settled in 1991 on a few hectares of Morgon. Through purchases and sharecropping arrangements, he has expanded his estate, which now covers 9.5 hectares, while establishing himself in the Guide, where he is considered a sure bet. This success is undoubtedly due in part to high-density planting (10,000 vines per hectare) and extended maceration.
