      Chardonnay finds its voice in Santenay’s limestone slopes.

      Caroline Morey continues to define modern white Burgundy with this poised and quietly expressive Les Cornieres Blanc. Drawn from a site just below Santenay Le Haut—near the esteemed 1er Cru Maladières—this 2022 release captures the stony tension and fine fruit that’s earning Chardonnay a renewed place in the appellation.

      There’s a touch of reduction on the nose, a marker of the site, that gives way to ripe orchard fruit—peach, pear, even a whisper of the exotic. It’s elegant, measured, and absolutely unforced, true to the vineyard’s limestone-rich soils. This is white Burgundy that doesn't shout, but rewards attention.

      Pale lemon and lime. The bouquet is quite elegant with a little generosity of fruit behind. This is perfectly balanced, not trying to be what it isn’t, with a lovely energy of fruit behind. There is a light reductive nose which Mathis finds typical of this vineyard. Drink from 2025-2028.

      Caroline Morey

      Since Jean-Marc's retirement in 2014, Caroline has taken her share of some family vineyards from her father Jean-Marc and has created her own domaine based in Chassagne-Montrachet working out of brand new cellars built for Caroline and her husband Pierre-Yves.

      For Caroline’s first vintage in 2014 she had small holdings in Chassagne-Montrachet for both red and white together with small holdings in Santenay and Hautes Cotes de Beaune totaling just 2.4 hectares. With more vineyards added both from family and from acquisitions in the last few years the total is now 7 hectares for Caroline. Her family holdings were roughly half for red wines and half for white wines, so Caroline has always been very comfortable vinifying red wines and is clearly adept with whites as well. For her own estate her holdings are about 35% Pinot Noir and 65% Chardonnay.

      Tasting notes

      NOSE
      Subtle and Stony

      Lightly reductive with orchard fruit and a hint of citrus zest.

      PALATE
      Textured, Intense, Finesse

      Ripe peach and pear glide across a mineral frame, edged with bright acidity.

      FINISH
      Clean and Lifted

      Fresh and slightly saline, with a gentle persistence.
