✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Domaine de Javerniere is a jewel in the portfolio of Georges Duboeuf, the legendary 'King of Beaujolais' who championed the region's Crus on the world stage. This wine hails from the famed Javernières climat, nestled at the foot of the iconic Côte du Py hill within the Morgon appellation. Here, the Gamay grape thrives in a unique terroir of decomposed schist, iron oxides, and manganese, locally referred to as 'roche pourrie' or rotted rock. This iron-rich soil imparts a profound structure, deep color, and distinct mineral complexity to the wine. Crafted using traditional vinification methods, this Morgon beautifully balances vibrant, fleshy dark cherry aromas with a savory, earthy depth. Over time, it undergoes the classic transformation known locally as 'morgonner,' where the wine sheds its youthful exuberance and develops the silky, forest-floor complexity reminiscent of aged Pinot Noir from the Côte d'Or.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Les Vins Georges Duboeuf har hjemsted i Romanèche-Thorins i det franske Beaujolais og blev grundlagt i 1964 af Georges Duboeuf, der ofte hyldes som 'Kongen af Beaujolais'. Négociant-huset revolutionerede regionens internationale profil ved at slå et slag for domæneaftapninger, opbygge tætte partnerskaber med lokale vinbønder og gøre det årlige Beaujolais Nouveau-fænomen verdensberømt. Huset ledes i dag af Duboeuf-familien og er fortsat dybt engageret i at formidle Gamay-druens mange terroirfacetter på tværs af de ti Beaujolais Crus – herunder Moulin-à-Vent, Morgon og Juliénas – sideløbende med et nøje udvalgt sortiment fra Rhône-dalen og Pays d'Oc.
