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.
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.
Caroline’s approach in the cellar shows a similar light touch as her husband using mostly 350 litre barrels with no more than 30% new and with no battonage for the white wines. For the red wines she adapts to each site and each vintage with no ‘recipe’ as such save to say that Caroline favours a little whole bunch when possible but never more than 50% which she considers too much. Now settled into the new cellars and with 5 vintages released it is clear that Caroline has moved straight into the premier tier of producers in the Cote de Beaune as she has rapidly established her very small and very fine estate. With just a few barrels produced of most wines these will be difficult to come by.
Beginning with hand harvests and natural yeast ferment of whole bunches for all whites and 25% to 40% whole bunches for red wines. Ageing mostly in 350 litre barrels with no lees stirring of up 14 months for red wines and up to 18 months for top whites. Very gentle pumping over and handling for red wines designed to maximise freshness and finesse. Long untreated corks for all wines and bottles sealed with wax.
Lightly reductive with orchard fruit and a hint of citrus zest.
Ripe peach and pear glide across a mineral frame, edged with bright acidity.
Fresh and slightly saline, with a gentle persistence.
