The Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Morgeots 2019 is a commanding yet tightly wound Chardonnay, showcasing the depth of this expansive Premier Cru through restraint rather than opulence. Aromas of ripe pear, lemon oil, white peach, and subtle floral notes emerge alongside crushed stone and saline nuances. On the palate, the wine is dense and structured, driven by vibrant acidity and a powerful mineral spine that gives vertical lift. Flavors of citrus zest, orchard fruit, almond, and chalk unfold gradually, gaining complexity with air. The texture is concentrated yet precise, avoiding heaviness despite the warm vintage. The finish is long, incisive, and mineral-driven—an authoritative Morgeots that balances generosity with Pierre-Yves Colin’s signature tension and aging potential.
Domaine Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey is one of Burgundy’s most exacting and influential estates, revered for its uncompromising commitment to purity, tension, and terroir transparency. Pierre-Yves Colin’s philosophy centers on early harvesting, extremely low yields, organic vineyard practices, and a radically minimalist cellar approach—no bâtonnage and very restrained oak—to preserve energy and site definition. His wines are known for their saline minerality, vertical structure, and extraordinary precision. Premier Crus from the domaine consistently rank among the most focused expressions of Chassagne-Montrachet. Rather than emphasizing richness, Colin prioritizes clarity and drive. His interpretations of warmer sites like Morgeots are particularly revealing of this disciplined approach.
