Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot 1er Cru - Marquis de Laguiche 2021

He vineyard (2.26 ha - 5.65 acres) is on a gradual slope. Some old buildings, partially ruined, are found at mid-slope - the Abbey of Morgeot. It had two owners: men of prayer and men of the sword: monks from the abbey and the Laguiche family.

During the French Revolution, the abbey was ruined but the estate of the Laguiche family was spared and remains to this day.

"A masterpiece! This wine alone could represent the "Bible" of Burgundy wines. The colour has a splendid golden glow. The nose reveals a multitude of aromas that one explores with happiness: floral fragrances of lily of the valley, vine flower, peach flower; exotic fruits, honey, grilled almonds, evolving towards rare wood notes. On the palate, the architecture is dominated by a harmonious roundness, which remains light. The persistence is exceptionally long, underlining and prolonging the finesse of the whole. A true symphony of sensations".
