A rich, virile wine with a sumptuous purple color. An expressive nose of ripe stone fruits: cherry, peach, apricot and plum. On the palate, it's full-bodied and seductive, with fine tannins. Fruit is the star of this generous, well-balanced cuvée!

Expert opinion
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2020) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
Winegrowers in Juliénas since the early 17th century, the Perrachon family bought Ch. de la Bottière in 1877, then Dom. des Perelles in Romanèche-Thorins (windmill). When Laurent Perrachon set up in 1989, he acquired Dom. des Mouilles, then parcels in Morgon, Fleurie and Saint-Amour: a total of 31 ha, with vines in six crus. With Maxime and Adrien, the new generation joined the domaine in 2016.

Domaine noté (guide 2022) Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Wine Enthusiast)
About the wine:
Ripe and juicy, this wine is fresh and full of black fruit. The acidity and juicy fruit are balanced by a core of fine tannins that will allow the wine to age. Drink from 2024.

Rated wine (guide 2023) 90/100 (Vintage 2021)
Graded area (2020 guide) Recommended
About the wine:
With its substantial structure and ripe black cherry fruit, this Morgon makes a bold statement. Some may find it too tannic for what they expect from a Beaujolais, but it simply needs a little more time in bottle to integrate the tannins. Good length. Drink now, but preferably from 2024.
