Description

Grapes for this cuvée come from a cooler parcel just above Clos des Lambrays, contributing to an underlying mineral tension in the wine. There is a real intensity on the palate with soils here not too dissimilar to those of Chassagne-Montrachet.

Critics reviews

Allen Meadows 88-91/100

More moderate though hardly subtle oak surrounds the ripe yet cool aromas of citrus confit, green apple and soft spice wisps. The sleek and beautifully detailed flavours possess good volume and evident minerality on the youthfully austere, bone-dry and sneaky long finale that is noticeably firmer.

Jasper Morris MW 91-93/100

30% new wood, including one 400 litre barrel, which is the way Jean-Pierre will go in future for the first year, and then earthenware jars for the second elevage. A touch of liquorice. This has a much denser texture than used to be the case and a superb fruit acid balance. Extremely impressive for village Morey blanc. A wine which will develop in time.
