Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot 2022

A fine pale lemon. The bouquet is delicious, refined gentle orchard fruit, with a little reduction too, quite refined citrus notes, but pure white fruit too. This is not a massive Morgeot, though there is adequate structure behind. Drink from 2028-2034. (91-94) Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy, October 2023.

From 2 parcels; Fairendes and Abbaye de Morgeot. Half of the vines in “Les Fairendes” were planted in 1964 and the remainder in 1974. This parcel has deeper soil where rocks break the surface. Up-slope, the stony red soil is shallow but gets deeper lower down the slope where the soil is white, heavy, compacted and clayey.
