Features

Au fil des vendanges, Jean Foillard, vigneron passionné et perfectionniste de Villié-Morgon, s'affine, se précise et multiplie toujours les expériences pour rechercher le petit plus qui fera la différence. Cette différence, il l'a obtenu également via une parcelle schisteuse du climat mythique de la Côte de Py !

Le domaine élabore des cuvées tout en finesse, légèreté, équilibre et vibrations : incontournable ! Jean est fils de vigneron, petits-fils de vigneron et de tonnelier... Son père le rappelle à ses côtés au début des années 1980 pour l'aider à reprendre rapidement le domaine familial. Dès 1985, il se rapproche de son voisin Marcel Lapierre pour suivre le savoir-faire de Jules Chauvet, définir ainsi des vins dignes de leurs terroirs et trouver leur style. Il deviendra aussi complice de Guy Breton, Yvon Métras, des Valette père et fils, de Jean-Paul Thevenet, etc. : une bande de vignerons à contre-courant mais tous libres et indépendants.

Ce Fleurie provient d'une parcelle d'arènes granitiques de 3 ha située au sud de l'appellation, proche de Grand'Cour et des Marrans. Le climat s'appelle Champagne, rendant difficile de l'écrire sur l'étiquette ;-)

Sur 2022, le vin est plus intense et structuré que le Côte du Py, avec un nez très complexe et floral. Assurément un vin de garde !

What is an author wine?

These can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.

An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.

This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.

As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.

* For example, theTouriga Nacionalin the Minervois, or theSyrahIn Forez ribs. They are crazy, these authors!

** Some winegrowers dare to produceSweety with Mourvèdre or oneNatural sparkling with Pineau d'Aunis

*** Like those of Jean-François Ganevat in the Jura or Zind-Humbercht in Alsace
