Jean Foillard Cuvée Corcelette Morgon

From one of Beaujolais’ most revered vignerons, Cuvée Corcelette is Foillard’s ode to the high-altitude, sandy soils of Morgon. The 2022 vintage is a masterclass in purity and finesse—Gamays like this don’t shout, they sing.
The nose is lifted and perfumed, with notes of crushed violets, wild strawberry, raspberry, and a touch of granite minerality. On the palate, it’s silken and precise, with juicy red fruit, supple tannins, and a cool, stony elegance that lingers long after the last sip.
Unfined, unfiltered, and fermented with native yeasts, this is natural winemaking at its most refined—vibrant, soulful, and utterly alive.
Drink it slightly chilled, with charcuterie, roast chicken, or simply on its own, as a meditation on what Gamay can be.
