In my mind, and according to my palate for that matter, Jean-Marc Burgaud is the don of Morgon. His wines achieve the highest levels and have an unerring propensity to repay cellaring, as notes in this and previous Vinous reports will testify. Once I had located the winery (for some reason, I always lose my bearings), we settled down for a comprehensive tasting through his recently-bottled 2021s and barrel samples of 2022. “The 2021 vintage is very different to the 2020,” he tells me. “For me, it is more Beaujolais. In 2022, I started the harvest on August 27th. Then there was 15mm of rain on September 1st or 2nd, after which I started the picking in Lantignié. Unfortunately, I have lost the Régnié cuvée to another family member.”

With 13 hectares of mostly old vines in Morgon Côte du Py, Burgaud is an important producer for the vineyard, which must be on any Beaujolais fan's short list of the region’s most esteemed sites. His vines are densely planted and have been farmed organically for over a decade, and his wines, which are made via the Burgundy method, are aged mostly in concrete tanks, with a bit of older wood coming into play for the Réserve bottling.
