Jean Foillard Morgon Cote du Py 2024

Jeb Dunnuck 94

The 2024 Morgon Cote du Py has a fairly intense purple color with carmine reflections and was raised as ever in older barrels. Here is a wine that signals the merits of this very splendid cuvee, from the finest sectors of the terroir. An ample, deep, full-bodied wine that takes on both depth and elegance, as Foillard knows how to do. The texture on the palate delivers handsome tannins, rich, soft, abundant and plush, without roughness or hardness, which will carry the wine through time. The balance too is well worked and well considered, while the aromas show the smoky, graphite register typical of the cru. Drink over the next 20 years. [Antoine Pétrus, 10/05/2026]

The 2024 Morgon Cote du Py has a little more bandwidth and complexity compared to the Corcelette, a melange of red and black fruit, black tea leaves and crushed stone. The palate is fresh and lively on the entry, a Cote du Py with a skip in its step and an assiduous sprinkling of white pepper towards the harmonious finish. Excellent. [Neal Martin, 31/05/2026]
