The story behind a wine often mirrors very closely to that of an individual. For example, Jean Ernest Descombes, an immensely engaging and historical figure from our Beaujolais region, devoted 30 years of his life to creating one of the finest estates and wines in Morgon. High-spirited and known for never turning down a good time, he welcomed wine reviewers and wine-tasting professionals to come and savor some of his fantastic wines. Those who met the unusual man never forgot the intense passion he had for his craft. An extraordinary grower, he deployed his talents in the vineyard as well as in winemaking. Threefourths of his vines are more than 50 years old and planted in the best locations, such as the favored climates of La Py, La roche, La Pillee, Les Pillets and Bellvue. The amazing wines produced at this estate have garnered an impressive list of awards. After Jean Ernests departure to the ?vineyard of paradise in October 1993, his daughter, Nicole, took over with an enthusiasm that would have warmed her fathers heart. In tribute, she likes to say that the personality of a wine always conjures up the person who made it. Her fathers wine is anything but an exception to this axiom. Such blissful encounters with Morgon reflect flashes of eternity to those fortunate enough to taste it.
| Producer |
| For more than four centuries, the Duboeuf family has been producing wine. Georges, well known for his dynamism, created Les Vins Georges Duboeuf in September of 1964. This historical date also marks the start of his wine merchant business, selecting, bottling and selling fine French wines from the Beaujolais and Maconnais regions of Burgundy and, in the process, becoming world-famous. Georges has become, in a sense, the ambassador of the region. He has remained loyal to his quest of offering quality wines, combining the flavor profiles of their terroir with bold characters. He conducts his business by negotiating with heart, passion, and the constant desire to share the very best of Beaujolais. In continuing the family tradition, Georges and his wife Rolande are joined by their son Franck and his wife Anne who manage the family business. |
