      This wine exemplifies Caroline's lighter style, the 2022 fruit adds a degree of intensity without changing the basis of her style. Very persistent and layered despite the delicate frame of the wine. Seductive strawberry aromas and fine and silky on the palate that is irresistible even now. 

      Santenay lies at the southern extremity of the Côte de Beaune. The particular climat 'La Comme' adjoins Chassagne Montrachet 1er cru Embazees and seems to borrow some of its style and elegance. Made with about 35% whole bunch (layered at the bottom of the ferment). 

      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.

      Caroline Morey Santenay La Comme 1er Cru Rouge 2022

      A pale ruby purple. The bouquet is very elegant. Caroline always liked to make a lighter style of Burgundy, yet the intensity of fruit in 2022 adds a degree of intensity without changing the basis of her style. Very persistent given the finesse of this wine. Just racked too, so chapeau.

      — Jasper Morris, 90-92 Points

      A slightly more deeply pitched nose reflects notes of both red and dark currant along with more evident floral elements. The succulent, round and relatively generous medium weight flavors deliver better length though here too more depth would be a plus.

      — Burghound

      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.
