A rising star in Beaujolais, Guénaël Jambon is participating in the impressive renaissance of this vineyard. In Morgon, home of long aging wines, he sculpts intense, deep, and sappy reds; the Gamay grape has earned its reputation anchored on slopes of granite and schist derived from volcanic rocks, which give these wines their complexity and minerality.
