Domaine des Gaudets Morgon 2014

Four generations have worked upon this Domaine. The great great grand-father of Christophe was a cooper. They carry on in the vinous tradition. The total surface of the Domaine is 28 acres. Christophe Sornay, attentive to the eco-system, makes the weeding of the vines and brings an enrichment of the humus with his crushed branches. His way of vinification corresponds to the device of Morgon Cru “The fruit of a Beaujolais, the charm of a Bourgogne”. Domaine Sornay, after which this bottling is named, is situated on the town of Ville-Morgon, at the feet of the Moulin-à-Vent hills with a southeast exposure and soils comprised of schist and decomposed volcanic rocks. Here they possess 21 acres of 50 years old Gamay. Winemaking is pure with 90% destemmed, maceration for 12 to 14 days and maturing in vat until springtime yielding a deep red with notes of red fruits with mellow tannins but still enough stature to accompany rich meat dishes, game and cheese and last 4 to 5 years easy.
