Morgon is undoubtedly the most distinctive of the ten Beaujolais Crus, with its easily identifiable notes of ripe black fruit and cherry jam. This cuvée, imagined by chef Paul Bocuse and his friend Georges Dubœuf, perfectly fulfills these codes, taking finesse and harmony one step further. A real favorite!

About the domain :
Joined by Franck, Georges Duboeuf is still at the head of the négociant-breeder business he founded in 1964, which has made a major contribution to the reputation of Beaujolais. The company works with numerous winegrowers and cooperatives, and generates 75% of its sales internationally. Georges Duboeuf is also a pioneer in wine tourism, with his oeonoparc (Hameau Georges Duboeuf) set up in 1993 in the former Romanèche-Thorins railway station.

About the domain :
Merchant-breeder since 1964, the innovative and media-savvy Georges Dubœuf was the first to promote and market Beaujolais. His son Franck has taken over from him since 1983. Thanks to first-rate technical equipment, vinification has progressed even further in recent years. Georges Dubœuf's tireless ambassadorial work in promoting his region is admirable, and the worldwide renown enjoyed by the company is well justified. The Beaujolais wine region owes him a debt of gratitude!
