Producer Information
Almost thirty years ago, Kermit Lynch introduced U.S. wine drinkers to four disciples of Jules Chauvet, the Beaujolais vigneron who experimented in making ânaturalâ wines with unparalleled success. One of these followers was Jean Foillard, a soft-spoken perfectionist who has arguably become the Beaujolaisâs most talented vigneron working today. He crafts reds that range from silky to succulent from the cru of Morgonâs top sites. Their balance, finesse, and age-worthiness are unrivaled in the region. Now, Jeanâs son Alex is fashioning his own reds from Gamay, and the apple certainly does not fall far from the tree. Alex has already joined the ranks of the regionâs most giftedâand well-trainedâproducers. Where Alex has strayed is in the appellations he has chosen as a starting point. Working in Brouilly and the CĂ´te de Brouilly, which represent Beaujolaisâs two southernmost crus, just south of Morgon, Alex plays with the sometimes mind-bending and rule-defying nature of the special terroirs here. Alex Foillard epitomizes the new generation of talent coming of age in the Beaujolais. Growing up in the Foillard household, he had privileged access to the brightest minds of natural wine, but that did not prevent him from exhibiting some ambition of his own. In order to really spread his wings, he purchased his own vineyards, including a one-hectare plot of fifty-year-old vines in Brouilly, a cru novel to the Foillard cellars.
