Caroline Morey Beaune Chassagne Montrachet Blanc Chambrees 2021

Pure crystalline fruit showing great style and restraint with good generosity for their entry level wine. This is a blend of all the lieu-dits (special sites) in 2021, though all vinified separately. The average age of the vines are at least 40 years-old, coming from 3 parcels of vines planted in the 1960’s and early 1990’s located in Le Chene, Les Masures and La Bergerie. Just one barrel made making it something of a rarity.

The Morey family name is one of the more infamous in Burgundy, with a long and expansive history. Caroline Morey is the daughter of the well-known Jean-Marc Morey, and started her own domaine after Jean-Marc's retirement in 2014. She is also married to Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey. Stylistically one major difference compared to PYCM is that she uses slightly less new oak, around 20-25% instead of 30-35%, not to mention half-a-dozen reds.
