Beaujolais Village, 2024

Bought-in Gamay from the volcanic hills of Beaujolais-Villages, made by Mee Godard, whose own Morgons are built to keep.

Mee Godard was born in South Korea, raised in France and trained in Oregon, Montpellier and Burgundy cellars before buying old vines in Morgon in 2013. Her Beaujolais-Villages comes from bought-in Gamay on volcanic hillsides around 400 metres. It ferments as whole bunches and is raised in concrete, so nothing smooths the fruit. Strawberry, red cherry and redcurrant with a quiet savoury note. Medium-bodied, juicy and lively.
