Dominique Piron Morgon Cote Du PY

A Morgon from the Côte du Py, the volcanic hill at the heart of the Morgon cru, by Dominique Piron, a Morgon-based family producer. Morgon is one of the firmer, longer-lived Beaujolais crus, and the Côte du Py its well-known slope. Beaujolais reds are made

from Gamay, usually with whole-bunch fermentation that keeps them fruity and low in tannin; the ten crus in the north, on granite soils, give the most structured wines.

Serve slightly cool, around 14–16°C, with charcuterie, roast chicken or pork.
