2024 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot, Alex Moreau

Cellar Circle Exclusive

Morgeot borders Santenay at the south end of the village, and is not only the largest premier cru in Chassagne, but the largest cru in the Côte d’Or. Alex’s parcel has the benefit of old vines - 50 years old, and their concentration combined with Alex’s practice of long, slow fermentation has resulted in a smoky, textural, delicious expression.

Tasting notes

Crystalline pale lemon. Quite a weight of pure white fruit on the nose, not super powerful in the mouth, a little bit of clay-based density, a couple of riper notes further back on the palate, youthful bitters, a complex Morgeot with at least medium ageing potential Tannins right at the back will help. Drink from 2030-2035. Tasted Dec 2025.
