“The 2024 Morgon Château-Gaillard comes from vines planted in 1920 and 1952 on sandy, granite-rich soils near Fleurie. It offers an expressive bouquet with fragrant violet aromas intertwined with notes of red and blue berries. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with supple tannins, revealing a beautiful structure and good length” (Vinous 2025)

Rated estate (2023 guide) 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
This iconic Beaujolais estate, renowned for both its history and its reputation, shines as a beacon over Morgon and the Beaujolais region. The vineyard spans 13 hectares, five of which are located on the Côte de Py. At the helm of the estate, Claude-Emmanuelle and her brother Louis-Benoît, renowned for their rigor and attention to detail, are the worthy successors to a tradition of excellence. The latest vintages, blending finesse and richness, are always elegant.

Rated estate (2023 guide) 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience)
About the estate:
Anyone who has tasted a wine from the Desvignes siblings—Claude-Emmanuelle and Louis-Benoît—has experienced a special emotion. Here, the pursuit of aesthetic excellence focuses on the subtle expression of specific vineyard sites (primarily in Morgon), the right balance of structure according to the vintage, and aging potential—all stemming from meticulous viticulture, sensitive winemaking free from dogma, and refined, wood-free aging. The third star has been pinned to the estate’s lapel for several years now, and given the consistency and coherence of the range, we suspect it will remain there for many years to come.
