Morgon 2024 from Marcel Lapierre is a red wine from the Morgon appellation of Beaujolais. This bottling comes from 70-year-old Gamay vines planted on granitic soils, representing the cornerstone of natural winemaking in the region. The fruit undergoes native yeast fermentation at low temperatures without the addition of chemicals. The result is a wine of exuberant primary fruit—wild strawberry and plum—that possesses the stuffing and character to develop earthy complexity over time. The 2024 vintage highlights the purity of the Lapierre style, delivering a palate that is both joyous in its youth and capable of developing the silky nuances that distinguish top-tier Morgon from the rest of the Crus in the region.
