History: The Louis-Claude Desvignes estate in Beaujolais is like its stones: robust, worn and invigorated by time, everything remains frozen in time and yet constantly evolving. Behind this 1722 gate and the vaulted ceiling typical of old winegrowers' houses, surprising and powerful Morgon wines are aged and refined.

Eight generations have succeeded one another at Domaine Louis-Claude Desvignes, passing on their expertise, which is inspired by tradition and enriched by constant questioning.
