An oenologist by training, Mee Godard realized her dream by taking over the plots of an old winemaker (André Meyran) without heirs in 2012. She ended up with 4.2 acres of Morgon, Côte du Py, 5.7 acres of Morgon, Corcelette, and 2.5 acres of Morgon, Grand Cras. Her small estate comprised of very old vines in the best terroirs of Morgon was born in 2013. She added a cuvée from Moulin-à-Vent in 2016 and makes a small amount of Beaujolais Blanc. She likes wines with not a lot of extraction, where there is tannin and longer aging in wood. She describes her style as vin de garde – quality wine for aging. But these are certainly the modern style of Gamay from Morgon, achieving mineral complexity and roundness thanks to Burgundian-style whole bunch pressing and partial destem.
