2023 Domaine Marc Morey & Fils Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chenevottes
Marc Moreys 2023 Chenevottes is one of the best buys of the vintage for Premier Cru White Burgundy, and we have a limited number available today at this special low price! The 2023 Chenevottes here is a beautifully poised white Burgundy from one of Chassagne’s quietly dependable family domaines, coming from a premier cru in the northern part of the village right on the Puligny border, a placement that helps explain the wine’s combination of generosity and stony precision. 2023 has both ripe fruit and lively, racy acidity, which work well with Chenevottes, leading to a nice fruit-and-mineral profile. Marc Morey remains one of those under-the-radar addresses that serious Burgundy buyers return to again and again, and this bottle feels like exactly the kind of premier cru that captures the domaine at its best and is a tremendous buy for the category at this low pricing!
Burghound 92 pts! A background hint of reduction shaves the top notes from the ripe aromas of various white-fleshed fruit, citrus confit and discreet floral nuances. Here too there is fine mid-palate density to the equally powerful medium weight flavors that coat the mouth with sappy dry extract that also buffers the moderately firm, serious and long finale. This too is a very good effort and worth checking out. (Drink starting 2029)
