Chassagne-Montrachet is one of the five villages of the Côte de Blancs. Premier Cru vineyards face east and southeast, and the Chardonnay grapes are grown in soils of brown clay and limestone. Abbaye de Morgeot is situated in the south of the commune, in the area of an old abbey. The wine is fermented in oak barrels, and then matured in barrel for 12 to 15 months before bottling.

Full-bodied and rich, this wine develops aromas of white fruit, white flowers and honey. It will develop for 10 to 15 years in the bottle.

About the Grape

Chardonnay
Though it has a distinctive profile, Chardonnay reflects other factors such as soil composition and vinification technique. Chardonnay is a reliable, hardy and prolific vine whose only real vulnerabilities are frost and uneven development of fruit.
