Château des Jacques Morgon "Côte du Py"

Where granite and time shape a Gamay of depth, elegance, and enduring spirit.
At the very heart of Morgon lies Côte du Py, a legendary hillside whose granite and schist soils give rise to the most powerful and age-worthy wines of the cru. For Château des Jacques, this site is not just a vineyard but a legacy — a place where Gamay reveals its deepest, most profound character, standing shoulder to shoulder with Burgundy’s finest reds.

This Morgon Côte du Py opens with aromas of black cherry, ripe plum, violet, and subtle earthy spice, carrying an unmistakable mineral tension from the stony soils. On the palate, it is generous yet refined — layered fruit wrapped in fine tannins, with a backbone that promises years of graceful ageing. It’s a wine that tells a story in stages: fruit and freshness at first, then unfolding into depth, texture, and a long, resonant finish.

For Ireland’s wine lovers, it’s the perfect discovery: a wine rooted in French heritage, but one that feels at home in a convivial gathering, over hearty meals, or set aside to mark a future celebration.

Why we love it:
Because Côte du Py is Morgon at its finest — complex, structured, and timeless. Château des Jacques captures the cru’s soul with elegance, offering a bottle that feels both authentic and elevated. It’s a wine that Ireland’s discerning drinkers will treasure, whether now or in a decade.
