Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Morgeot 2024
Trade Tools
France
This wine originates in a parcel of 2.5 acres within this well-known Premier Cru, located in the south section of the appellation. The exposition is southeast on a slope between 200 - 250 meters of elevation. Soils are light clay with small stones on the upper slope and deeper reddish clay just below. This is a classic example of Chassagne terroir producing consistently full-bodied and opulent wines.

2024 vintage
Harvest Note
The 2024 vintage was challenging and ultimately saw severely reduced yields due to excessive rainfall with warm temperatures, leading to poor flowering and uneven fruit set and pressure from downy mildew. Low lying parcels suffered the most. Harvest began on September 13th and the yields, while small, arrived in good condition.
Tasting Note
This wine is characterized by its fleshy and supple texture with a fine balance of acidity and opulence. Aromas include white flowers, green almond and acacia honey.
