A new vintage, the 2011 was rated: Robert Parker 88-89+/100
This Réserve cuvée, made from old vines, is aged in oak barrels for several months to refine its tannins, in the grand tradition of aging great Burgundy wines. A dense, mineral wine that, after a year, releases very ripe aromas... A Morgon of the highest quality!

Rated estate (2023 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
After earning his degree in viticulture and oenology, Jean-Marc Burgaud settled in Morgon on the Côte de Py in 1989. Today, he owns 17 hectares across four appellations: Beaujolais-Villages red and white, Régnié, and Morgon, with the latter accounting for 11.80 hectares. Jean-Marc Burgaud is a low-key winemaker, but one need only mention his name in the vineyards to quickly realize that his reputation precedes him.

Rated estate (2022 guide) Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Robert Parker - The Wine Advocate)
About the estate:
For several years in a row, I have observed that Jean-Marc Burgaud is a winemaker at the top of his game, and the success with which he has risen to the challenges of the 2021 vintage is yet further proof of this assertion. These are among the most delightful wines produced in the region today, and they are all the better for the fact that Burgaud has abandoned new oak in favor of seasoned oak and is pursuing a gentler extraction than in the past with his semi-classical method—carbonic macerations lasting 7 to 15 days, depending on the cuvée. And there is only a single bottling of each wine, which results in a rare consistency, even across his 4.3 hectares in Beaujolais-Lantignié (one of the region’s best values, by the way).

Rated Estate (2023 Guide) 2*Stars (These exceptional estates, often boasting fabulous terroirs, are must-haves that, thanks to the consistency and excellence of their wines, deserve a place in the cellars of discerning wine lovers)
About the estate:
Since founding his estate in 1989, Jean-Marc Burgaud has become a staple in our guide. From his apprenticeship in Burgundy, he has adopted the practice of producing single-vineyard cuvées, aging that sometimes extends over two winters, and destemming tailored to the specific vintage and wine. His winemaking consistently lends a velvety character to Gamay, enhanced by barrel aging (with very little new oak) tailored to each vineyard (the majority of which are located across various terroirs in Morgon). He also produces Régnié and Beaujolais-Villages on the granitic soils of Lantignié. The style has become more open over time, without losing sight of the terroir’s expression.
