We're telling you about their Winery
| Marcel Lapierre was THE master of sulfur-free wine in the Beaujolais region and recognized as such throughout France. Since his death in 2010, his son Mathieu and his daughter Camille have continued this remarkable work in viticulture and winemaking near Villié-Morgon. A great intellectual, artist, and educator, Marcel Lapierre discovered the principles of Jules Chauvet—a researcher and the father of the natural wine movement—in 1981 and decided to steer the Winery (now in its third generation of winemakers) toward gentler, less interventionist methods. Since then, the philosophy has remained the same: moving toward greater naturalness through biodynamics. In viticulture, the Lapierres do not hesitate to till the soil to keep it alive and use only organic treatments. The hand-harvested grapes are rigorously sorted and cooled if necessary. |
The non-input winemaking The processing of whole grapes continues with the same rigor through aging in barrels and casks (some of which are 13 years old!) for a minimum of 9 months. Finally, the blending process allows for the bottling of three types of cuvées from the Morgon vineyard: one bottled without sulfur or filtration, one lightly sulfited for stabilization, and another that is both sulfited and filtered. But the Winery Lapierre The 16.5 hectare estate - including 2 hectares on the famous Côte du Py - also offers other wines such as a Vin de France The "Raisins Gaulois" and, exceptionally, a great cuvée de garde on Morgon, the "Marcel Lapierre" cuvée. The organic wines (ah the gamay!) of the Lapierre family are Beaujolais of the highest quality, wines of the terroir, which smell of grapes, this fruit so exciting when it is worked so beautifully! |
