Domaine des Souchons Morgon Cote du Py 2017

Côte du Py is rich and powerful. Tannins are ample and silky. Our wine develops black fruit, preserved fruit and roasted notes.

Although our vinification is traditional, we conduct a longer fermentation process which allows us to extract the intensity of the colours and aromas. Our Côte du Py vintage is partially aged in casks of 400 liters, a capacity appropriate for Beaujolais wines because this helps to create a finer blend than with classic barrels.

Our estate is one of the oldest in the appellation and has continued to expand since the 1950s. In 1985, we were able to take advantage of the division of the Morgon appellation area into 6 climates, including the Côte du Py, which covers 3 hectares of the estate.
