2006 Morgon, Javernières Domaine Louis Claude Desvignes

Made and matured in large old oak, the Javernières is the superior Desvignes cuvée, its Gamay vines located on some of the steepest old schist slopes of the Côte Du Puy in Beaujolais. The wine has all the weight associated with this, the most powerful of the Crus Beaujolais, and yet loses none of the ethereal red fruit elegance for which top quality Gamay is so well-known.
(Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer)

Louis Claude has handed over the day-to-day running of the property to his charming daughter Claude Emmanuelle. Claude Emmanuelle has been fairly pre-occupied by the arrival of her first child, but this has not distracted the two, or should that be the three of them, from making an effortlessly elegant Morgon.
