The wine region of Morgon
Morgon is one of the ten Beaujolais crus located on the slopes of the Beaujolais hills, on the west bank of the Saône. The appellation applies only to red wines made from the Gamay Grape. Some white grapes are allowed in the Final blend: Chardonnay, Aligoté and Melon de Bourgogne. Although there are no officially defined quantities for these varieties, Morgon's blend is controlled by limiting the proportion of these varieties that are allowed in the Vineyard to a maximum of 15%.
The wine region of Beaujolais
Beaujolais is an important wine region in eastern France, famous for its vibrant, Fruity red wines made from Gamay. It is located immediately South of Burgundy, of which it is sometimes considered a Part, although it is in the administrative region of Rhône. The extensive plantings of Gamay in this region make Beaujolais one of the few regions in the world that is so concentrated on a single Grape variety. Pinot Noir is used in small quantities in red and rosé wines, but in the name of regional identity, it is being phased out and will only be allowed until the 2015 harvest.
The word of the wine: Pinot meunier
Cultivated in the 19th century in all the northern vineyards, this black grape variety has largely regressed since. Very present in the Marne valley, it constitutes a third of the vineyards in Champagne, alongside pinot noir and chardonnay with which it is often blended. It brings roundness and red and yellow fruit aromas to champagnes. Pinot meunier is also the dominant grape variety in red and rosé wines in the Orleans AOC and the rare Touraine-Noble-Joué, a grey wine. Syn.: meunier.
