“‘An elegant Morgon that glides across the palate’ (James Suckling)”

“A bright, clear ruby color. Wild berries, wild strawberries, blueberries, and plums. Very refined and elegant, with a silky texture and supple tannins. An intense, flavorful finish.” (Jancis Robinson 2024)

About the estate:

A leading figure in the Beaujolais region in general and in Morgon in particular, Dominique Piron—joined by his partner Julien Révillon—has developed a solid range of Beaujolais wines. Across more than 100 hectares, seven appellations are represented, with Morgon naturally making up the majority. With a refined style and expressive aromas, while retaining the distinctive character of their terroir, the estate’s wines are all outstanding.

About the estate:

As the heir to 14 generations of winemakers, Dominique Piron handed over the reins of the family estate in 2020 to Julien Revillon, his business partner since 2013. Revillon now oversees some 50 hectares, comprising both the estate’s own vineyards and grapes purchased for the merchant division.

Rated estate (2024 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

Julien Revillon, assisted by his talented winemaker Pierre Meunier, continues Dominique Piron’s legacy with consistency and flair. The duo is supported by vineyard manager Thibaud Lemaître, whose assistance has become essential for overseeing an estate spanning 90 hectares. Their joint efforts have improved the quality of the grapes, and the plot-by-plot selection process they’ve undertaken is beginning to bear fruit. We’re impressed by the consistency of the lineup and its cornerstones: the fruit’s natural spontaneity, its sweetness, and the precise character of each cru.

Rated winery (2022 guide) Recommended

About the wine:

A very delicate nose of tart cherry with subtle, earthy notes. An elegant Morgon that glides across the palate. It has good structure, but this remains in the background, making it a wine that is easy to enjoy young. A long, well-structured finish. Ready to drink now or for aging.
