2024 Lapierre Cuvée Marcel Lapierre

Marcel Lapierre revolutionized Beaujolais in the 1980s, pioneering natural winemaking with respect for old-vine Gamay. The Cuvée Marcel Lapierre is produced only in exceptional vintages from some of the oldest vines on the estate, including parcels on the Côte du Py. This special cuvée showcases the granite-driven minerality and terroir of Morgon. The estate produces wines in a natural style with no added sulfur from sustainably farmed vineyards. Grapes are harvested at peak ripeness and fermented with native yeasts via semi-carbonic maceration, then aged in neutral oak to preserve freshness and purity. Vintages are marked with Roman numerals and produced only in the best years.
