Mid lemon yellow. The nose has a little bit more reductive tension than the straight Chassagne, with fresh golden orchard fruit, a generous weight behind, ripe apples, good acidity nicely folded in and excellent length. Drink from 2026-2032. Tasted: October 2023.
About Morey Coffinet:
Founded in the late 1970s by Michel Morey (son of the late Marc Morey) and wife Fabienne (from the Pillot clan). Their son, Thibault took over the helm of the estate in 2009. Thibault joins a long lineage of winemakers in Chassagne-Montrachet with great gravitas in their family names such as Pillot, Morey, and Coffinet. In 2014, he began to pursue biodynamic viticulture, gaining certification in 2015. A solid foundation of 1er Crus come from the southeast-facing hillside; the whites reflect the very essence of Chassagne with fragrant aromatics framed around powerful minerality, while the reds hone-in on terroir revealing roasted, muscular aromas while displaying silky texture and balance.
