Domaine Mee Godard Morgon Gamay 2022: A Masterpiece of Beaujolais Elegance
Discover the essence of Burgundy terroir with Domaine Mee Godard’s 2022 Morgon Gamay—a refined expression of Beaujolais craftsmanship. Hailing from Morgon’s alluvial soils, this wine captures the region’s signature balance of fruitiness and mineral complexity, crafted with meticulous attention to detail by winemaker Mee Godard.
Flavors That Captivate
This 2022 vintage enchants with a harmonious blend of ripe raspberry notes and delicate violet aromas, framed by a subtle mineral undertone. Its silky texture and refreshing acidity make it both approachable and sophisticated, while whole-cluster fermentation (60% of grapes) adds a nuanced elegance often absent in Morgon wines. Though lighter in body compared to neighboring crus, its finesse and precision shine through—attributes celebrated by Decanter and Vinous alike, each awarding it a stellar 93-point rating.
Terroir-Driven Excellence
Planted on sand-and-clay soils (a departure from Morgon’s typical granite), this wine reflects its unique terroir with a graceful austerity that evolves beautifully over time. Aged in a blend of barrels for added complexity, it offers a saline finish that lingers invitingly on the palate. Whether enjoyed now or cellared for future discovery, this bottling exemplifies Domaine Mee Godard’s commitment to showcasing Morgon’s underappreciated diversity.
Perfect Pairings & Occasions
Ideal for pairing with charcuterie boards or roasted poultry, this wine strikes the perfect balance for casual gatherings or gourmet meals. Its versatile profile also makes it a standout choice for wine enthusiasts seeking to explore Burgundy’s lesser-known gems beyond Nuits-Saint-Georges or Chambolle-Musigny.
