A Burgundy Chardonnay crafted by the prestigious Chassagne-Montrachet appellation producer, Domaine Marc Morey. This wine offers a great opportunity to acquire a wine with the complexity of a Premier Cru status at a more reasonable price typical of the Côte Chalonnaise region.
In the glass, the wine reveals intense aromas of white peaches, citrus blossoms, and crushed stone. These are complemented by subtle notes of toasted hazelnuts and butter. On the palate, the wine features a creamy texture ideally balanced by a long-lasting, crisp acidity.
The harvest is hand-picked in the Rabource vineyard, which boasts excellent sun exposure as well as limestone and clay soils, giving the wine exceptional concentration. This is an impeccable choice for enthusiasts of classic Burgundy white wines who value a clear expression of terroir. Due to its excellent balance, this wine is ready to be enjoyed now, but it also possesses a solid potential to age in the bottle for another 5–8 years.
Serve at a temperature of 10–12 °C, pairing it with fattier white fish (such as catfish), poultry dishes with creamy sauces, lobster, or aged hard cheeses such as “Comté.”
If you want to experience the true spirit of Burgundy, it's worth remembering the name „Domaine Marc Morey & Fils“. This winery grew in the heart of Chassagne-Montrachet village. Their history began in 1919, when Fernand Morey established his estate there after World War I. Today, the fourth generation – Sabina Mollard and her husband Bernard Mollard – lovingly continue the family traditions. Bernard Mollard is a true talent in his field, one of those winemakers who not only follow tradition but also bravely seek new paths to the hearts of wine lovers.
