A significant Premier Cru towards the southern end of Chassagne-Montrachet, Morgeot produces gorgeously rich wine, with a beautiful abundance of pear, peach and lemony citrus fruit, surrounded by creamy richness. In the hands of masterful vigneron, Alex Moreau, the wine is ripe yet impeccably-balanced, with added complexity from careful oak-ageing.

Winemaking
Alex Moreau's wines are consistently outstanding, thanks to his effective management of pickers, to ensure each vineyard parcel is picked at optimum ripeness. The must is allowed a brief maceration on the skins before pressing, and Alex allows long fermentations, which build layers of complexity in the wine. Barrel-ageing takes place on the lees.
Press Review
The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot unwinds in the glass with aromas of pear, citrus zest, fresh mint and warm bread. Medium to full-bodied, rich and concentrated, its satiny attack segues into a layered, tightly wound core framed by bright acids and chalky structuring extract. As ever, it's a benchmark rendition of this site.
