Chassagne Montrachet Morgeots Fairendes, Henri Germain 2023

Tasting Notes

The 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Les Fairendes has turned out nicely, offering up aromas of sweet orchard fruit, peaches, toasted nuts and spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy wine that's suave and giving, with a lively core of fruit and a saline finish. This is, as usual, the richest wine in the range, but it hasn't lost its balance.

Pale lemon with a faint green tint. The ripe white fruit comes through very quickly on the nose, stones as well, despite the clay rich nature of this vineyard. Relatively robust, this will need time to even out, but there is certainly plenty going on here. A little grapefruit peppering the finish to help maintain the freshness.
