Description
The appellation of Morgon is situated entirely within the parish of Villié-Morgon where the soil
sets its wines apart from the other 'Crus' since the percentage of sand and shale is higher here
due to the particular way in which the local schist layers have weathered. Consequently the
wines are firmer and darker in colour than the other 'Crus'.
