Tasting Note Our Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru “Morgeot” 2014 shows a brilliant and
pale yellow colour. The nose is intense and reveals brioche and vanilla notes, but also exotic
fruits such as pineapple and mango. The mouth, round and generous, offers toasted bread and
pineapple aromas. Beautiful tension on the finish.

Description

The wines of Chassagne-Montrachet offer great value and timeless image. These wines command lower prices compared with those from the neighbouring appellations of Meursault and PulignyMontrachet, and represent good value for money. The wines are bold and reminiscent of exotic fruits and Morgeot, which lies mid-slope with a south-easterly exposure, is a perfect example of this style. Morgeot lies on the border between the Côte d’Or and Saone-et-Loire regions, which was a boundary in the Gallo-Roman period. At this time this plot of land was called Morga from the Latin margo which means edge border from which today’s name Morgeot is derived.
