" Le travail rigoureux à la vigne nous a révélé le grand potentiel et la diversité des terroirs de Vergisson. "
THE DOMAIN
This wine domaine is situated in Vergisson, a picturesque village up on a hillside in the far south of Burgundy, and covers 7 hectares.
Gilles and Joëlle Morat use an artisan approach to winemaking, assisted by their son Pierre, and opt for natural and sustainable winegrowing practices in their vineyards. All of the soils are ploughed, working by hand is preferred and this includes the harvesting. The meticulous work in the vineyards and cellars results in rich and pure wines of character that are a faithful expression of the Vergisson terroirs. The domaine has had organic certification since the 2022 vintage.
The Domaine produces 6 wines from Pouilly-Fuissé and 2 from Saint-Véran.
Our profession: Winemaking
We choose to work a smaller size vineyard area to stay in keeping with our artisanal approach: rigorous manual work, ploughing the soil according to the seasons, treatments based on observation and using only the mineral or vegetal based products of organic viticulture, harvesting by hand at full maturity. We respect the soil and the vine in order to obtain one of Nature’s most wonderful products - the grape.
WINES
Through our painstaking work in the vineyards, we are able to bring out the great potential and diversity of the terroirs of Vergisson in our wines. Our wines, when tasted, reveal contrasting and varying aromas and characteristics, reflecting the noble character of their origin. The grapes are pressed with care and the juice put into barrel before alcoholic fermentation. The wines are slowly and carefully crafted. We intervene as little as possible – we let time do the work.
Each vintage is different and we work with nature to create fine, subtle wines, wines with character that tell a story. Imagining our wines being enjoyed in the future, in a convivial atmosphere with people talking and commenting about them, gives us the greatest of pride and pleasure.
