Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Morgeot

The vines are planted in the southern part of the appellation, facing south-east, on limestone and marl soils; some parcels are more than 50 years old. According to the merchant’s information, after hand-harvesting and whole-bunch pressing, the must ferments with natural yeasts in French oak casks. The wine is aged for around 18 months on the fine lees, with little bâtonnage and around 25% new oak. It shows ripe apple, pear, dried apricot, citrus, vanilla and flint; its rich, opulent structure is supported by acidity and mineral precision. The 2023 vintage was harvested at the end of August and is considered both ripe and fresh.
