Wine No 3 from
Domaine de la Bonne Tonne
Dames de Coeur 2022
AOP Morgon
In the mva team's lingo, we call this "glug-glug wine" — meaning it's pleasant, as comforting as your softest favourite sweater. So easy, so good, your glass magically empties. You can go there without a second thought.
I'm a nerd, I want every detail
The genius "Beaujolais nouveau" marketing campaign long undermined the reputation of truly great Beaujolais wines. But that's no longer a secret. Morgon is one of ten crus within the Beaujolais region — and our favourite. This 100% Gamay is pleasant, and we mean this in the best possible way. During the blind tasting it emerged from, a winemaker friend asked everyone around the table: "Would you finish this bottle sip by sip with a friend?" The unanimous answer was yes. So here it is.

The occasion
This wine is one of our favourite relaxed apéritif options. Serve chilled with a few things to nibble.
Anne-Laure & Thomas Agatensi
Domaine Bonne Tonne has been in Anne-Laure's family for 7 generations now. Her father made the property switch to organic farming, also applying some biodynamic techniques. And now that Anne-Laure and Thomas have left their 'jobs' to take their turn running the domaine, it is their intention to not only follow in her father's footsteps but earn the DEMETER biodynamic certification soon. They've even recruited Câline, their eight year old horse to help them plow the land!
