Guénaël Jambon Estate
Guénaël moved to the estate in 2001 after studying viticulture and oenology in Burgundy. In 2004, he took over the Roches du Py estate, thereby expanding his holdings, particularly on the Côte du Py. In 2007, he expanded further to the Grand-Cras and in 2012 with the acquisition of Morgon. 

The terroirs and vintages of the Guénaël Jambon estate are cultivated using a parcel-by-parcel, "natural" philosophy, where the terroir remains the basis for the creation of the wines.
The aim is always to produce clean, precise wines. Most of the plots are located on the southern slope of the Côte du Py, rich in blue rocks, schist, and decomposed iron oxide and manganese rock. This gives Morgon wines their minerality, fruitiness, and substance. The second part of Morgon is located in the "Charmes" and "Grands Cras" climats on granitic and sandy terroirs, producing generous wines with notes of red fruit and supple tannins. The exposure and exceptional terroir of these plots are combined with respect for the vines and rigorous cultivation. Guénaël is committed to allowing the terroir to express itself fully through soil cultivation, grass cover, and sustainable vineyard management. Yield control and manual harvesting allow for selection of the grapes to obtain optimum organoleptic quality for vinification. The wines are aged according to their characteristics in vats, oak casks, and barrels.
The estate consists of 20 hectares planted with Gamay: Morgon "Côte du Py," Morgon "Charmes," Morgon "Grand Cras," Fleurie, Chiroubles, Beaujolais Villages
