In the press
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.
Vinification
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.
Food Match
Versatile. Pair with fish, seafood, poultry, pork, game bird. Also works well with tomato-based dishes and vegetables, especially grilled.
