For the past 30 years, Jean Foillard remains true to his style: natural wines, no frills, but accurate. Highly refined, this supported Garnet wine opens on the nose with floral aromas, crushed red berries and notes of undergrowth. Smooth and pure, the palate is based on dense and powerful tannins with a superb velvety feel, up to a lingering and elegant finish. All the character of a great Morgon!

From 1985, he developed his know-how with the famous Marcel Lapierre and began to forge his style by enhancing his terroir.
