Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Morgeot 2023
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.
Harvest Note
2023 was a hot and dry growing season which was saved by significant rain in June. This allowed the vines to withstand summer heat and drought and led to ideal sanitary conditions and a modest yield yet concentrated vintage.
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 honey.
