Caroline Morey Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chaumees 2023

From vines planted in the 1950’s located quite high on the slope at the northern end near Puligny. Lots of limestone in this vineyard and it shows with super fine aromatics and palate staining intensity of orchard fruits backed by a great line of acidity. Very long, very impressive. Near Philippe Colin’s vines, near the quarry. Older vines with millerandes.

Pale colour, white fruit in a restrained fashion on the nose. Builds in fruit and charm on the nose, with a cashmere texture which is pleasing and well-integrated acidity. As ever, in the delicately refined style of Caroline Morey. Drink from 2028-2034. (91-93) Jasper Morris M.W., Inside Burgundy, October 2024
