The 2023 Domaine Marc Morey & Fils Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chenevottes is one of the best buys of the vintage for Premier Cru white Burgundy, and we have a limited amount available today at a price that is hard to hit for the category. Les Chenevottes sits in northern Chassagne-Montrachet, close to the Puligny border, and the site often delivers a beautiful balance between Chassagne's generosity and a more refined, stony precision. The 2023 vintage suits the vineyard particularly well, combining ripe, expressive fruit with lively acidity and enough mineral tension to keep the wine focused and energetic. Marc Morey remains one of those quietly dependable domaines that Burgundy buyers keep seeking out, producing wines with real typicity and restraint without the price tag attached to many of the region’s more fashionable names. This is a beautiful example of Chenevottes and a tremendous buy for Premier Cru white Burgundy!

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)
