History: Domaine Louis-Claude Desvignes in Beaujolais is like its stones: robust, worn and rejuvenated by time, everything remains fixed and evolves constantly. It is behind this portal from 1722 and this typical arch of old winemaker houses that wines that are both surprising and powerful, the Morgon, age and beautify.

Eight generations have succeeded each other at the Domaine Louis-Claude Desvignes and pass on this know-how that draws from tradition and enriches itself through perpetual questioning.

WARNING: the capsule of this bottle is made of food-grade wax. To open it under the best conditions, push your corkscrew directly through the wax, and once it is well into the cork, pull sharply (without using the lever if you have a waiter’s friend), in short, “the old-fashioned way.” This is my best way to avoid “crumbs” in the bottle!
