    Producer

    Producer

    Roche du Py is one of Morgon's most renowned terroirs, formed from decomposed granite known as "roche pourrie," which imparts a unique mineral intensity to the Gamay grapes. The estate's vines are cultivated organically, with a constant focus on balance and optimal ripeness. This remarkable terroir yields concentrated and expressive grapes, giving rise to profound, complex, and elegant wines like this 2022 vintage.

    Owner and history

    Mathieu and Camille Lapierre, heirs of Marcel Lapierre, are committed to perpetuating the pioneering spirit of the estate. Trained by renowned winemakers and deeply rooted in the philosophy of natural winemaking, they combine respect for life, technical rigor, and intuition. Their unwavering dedication to the quality and expressiveness of their wines allows the estate to remain a leading reference in Beaujolais, offering sincere, vibrant wines that are true to their terroir.

    Vinification and aging

    The estate favors natural winemaking: hand-harvested grapes, traditional carbonic maceration, indigenous yeasts, and minimal use of sulfur. Aging in old oak casks preserves the purity of the fruit while imparting a subtle structure.
    The Roche du Py Camille 2022 vintage benefits from this approach, revealing an energetic, precise wine deeply marked by its granitic terroir, while remaining perfectly accessible in its youth.
