With south-southeast exposure on granite soils, this cuvée, aged in oak barrels for 8 months, reveals pure, deep, elegant Gamay.

Jean Foillard - Morgon Cuvée 3.14 2016

5/5 (1 review)

"The 2016 Morgon Cuvée 3.14 is a beautiful wine in the making, unfolding in the glass with scents of rose petals, blood orange, sweet wild berries, smoked meats and subtly reductive top notes that dissipate in the glass. On the palate, it's medium- to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, with a deeper, more reserved profile than Foillard's spectacular Côte du Py 2016." (Wine Advocate 2019 - William Kelley) A sparkling deep Morgon.

Jean Foillard - Morgon Athanor 2015

3.5/5 (2 reviews)

"Named after an alchemical oven, the unique 2015 Morgon Athanor has the same origins as the estate's Cuvée 3.14, but it was so atypically ripe - fully reaching 15.4% alcohol - that the Foillard family thought it should bear a different name. Offering a deep bouquet of cherries, wild plums, dark chocolate and fruit compote, it's full-bodied, rich and powerful, with a full, muscular frame of powdered tannin, a generous core of fruit and a long finish. While it's certainly not light, the tasting is perfect despite its extreme style. It will be interesting to see how it evolves." (Wine Advocate 2019 - William Kelley) An exceptional solar Morgon!

Jean Foillard - Morgon Charmes Eponym 2017

4.3/5 (14 reviews)

Domaine Jean Foillard - Morgon Cuvée 3.14 2010

Note : RVF 17/20
"Cuvée 3.14 (for Py) comes exclusively from old vines on the hillside and is only produced in great vintages. In 2010, it delivers a generous, full and dense wine, perfectly expressing this great terroir". (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2013 - RVF). A concentrated, rich Morgon, with aromas of fresh black fruits and characteristic kirsch nuances. All the magic of old Gamay vines!

Domaine Jean Foillard - Morgon Cuvée 3.14 2009

4.5/5 (2 reviews)

Notes : RVF 17.5/20, Bettane & Desseauve 17.5/20
"As concentrated and rich as ever, intense fruit, fresh black fruit pulp, velvety length, bewitching finish, a very great py in an extraordinary vintage. It's still tasting on the fruit, but should soon close up". (Le Guide Bettane & Desseauve des Vins de France 2013)
