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.
