Domaine Marcel Lapierre

Domaine Marcel Lapierre is a family-owned estate located in Villié-Morgon. Marcel Lapierre, who passed away in 2010, was a passionate advocate for natural wines and succeeded in making his estate a flagship of the Morgon appellation. Today, his wife and son Mathieu, joined by his sister Camille, carry on Marcel Lapierre’s legacy.

The vineyards of Domaine Marcel Lapierre now cover 13 hectares, all of which have been organically farmed since 1981; 2 of those hectares are located on the Côte du Py. Day after day, the estate’s work is guided by the authentic expression of the terroir: hand-harvesting and traditional Beaujolais winemaking methods, with no added SO₂ or exogenous yeasts.

Marcel Lapierre's wines are vibrant, reflecting the authentic character of the white-juiced Gamay Noir grape and embodying the distinctive qualities of the Villié-Morgon terroir.
