2019 Saint Aubin 1er Cru Charmois, Domaine Marc Morey

Burgundy, France

Vintage: 2019

Domaine Marc Morey is one of our favourite producers and we think winemaker Sabine Mollard, Marc Morey’s granddaughter, is something rather special.

The 2019 Saint Aubin 1er Cru Charmois opens in the glass with complex aromas of lemon peel combined with orange, vanilla and just a hint of smokiness, leading to a full bodied texture and the citrus characters which are echoed on the palate. Abundant minerality and a fresh acidity keep the palate lively, followed by a clean finish with elegant, buttery elements.

The grapes are grown in the Premier Cru named vineyard of Le Charmois, of the Saint- Aubin appellation. Domaine Marc Morey’s philosophy puts great emphasis on working alongside nature, with rigorous debudding and green harvests to ensure that the vine’s growth is perfectly balanced. The vineyards are farmed according to “La lutte raisonnée”, using sustainable agriculture methods, reducing the use of chemicals in order to respect the land and its environment.

Description

Domaine Marc Morey was established in 1919 by Ferand Morey. He was joined by his son Marc Morey in 1944 and the domain has been passed down subsequently through the generations. In 2003, Marc Morey’s granddaughter, the talented winemaker Sabine Mollard, took over the reins. The old cellar lies under their magnificent house, which was a former coaching inn and Marc Morey’s family home for 100 years. Domaine Marc Morey’s wines have become renowned worldwide, especially their exquisite Chassagne Montrachets which are elegant, complex and display wonderful minerality.

The must began fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures and mid-fermentation it was then transferred into oak casks, 20% of which were new oak. Bâtonnage, or the stirring of the fine lees, took place until malolactic conversion was complete, adding texture and complexity to the resulting wine. Having spent 10 months in barrel, the wine was then racked, fined and filtered, prior to being bottled.
