2021 Marc Morey Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chenevottes

The house style sits somewhere in the middle between the highly reductive, super flinty wines and old school richer and rounder style. Sabine strives for her wines to be enjoyable on release but also able to cellar for years, and her focus is to preserve freshness and express the underlying terroir of each parcel. The whites are matured in 228 liter barrique for 10 months (20-30% of which is new), and stirred once a week between alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation to develop texture and concentrate flavors. As for reds, they have a significant portion of whole cluster stem inclusion for freshness and more perfumed aromatics and lean towards the lighter and prettier style of red Burgundy. These are classically styled Burgundies that will please all palates, and the price points for wines of this quality, both in winemaking and terroir is outstanding. Domaine Marc Morey's wines sell so quickly we never get the chance to offer them, but thanks to a healthy allocation we are especially excited to share them with you.

90 Points from Allen Meadows of Burghound: "A cool, airy and very pretty nose combines notes of various white-fleshed fruit that is nuanced by hints of petrol, rosemary oil and a whiff of citrus. The succulent and attractively textured medium weight flavors that possess a bit more volume as well as better depth on the markedly dry but not short finish where a bitter lemon character is prominent."
