- TASTING NOTE: "Here are the nose is really quite floral in character with a pretty combination of spiced pear, apple and a background hint of petrol. The succulent and rich larger-bodied flavors possess an abundance of mouthcoating dry extract that serves to buffer the moderately firm acid spine shaping the longer and more complex finale. This is really quite good and should also reward up to a decade of keeping. Drink 2029+" -91 Points - Allen Meadows, Burghound
- ABOUT THE WINE: Morgeot is a white wine of volume, richness, and texture with aromas and flavors of ripe yellow apple, peach, and lemon. Occasionally, one finds a note of red fruit in Morgeot such as red apple or berry. Aging in 30% new Burgundian brings notes of vanilla and toast.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Jean-Marc Blain married Claudine, daughter of Jacques Gagnard, to create this estate. He comes originally from Veaugues, close to Sancerre, but met Claudine while studying in Burgundy and rapidly defected. They have now been joined by son Marc-Antonin, who has also taken on one or two of the family vineyards in his own name. The domaine is 60 per cent white by vineyard ownership, but 70 per cent by wine production. The whites are attractively-made wines, good in the medium term but capable of ageing. The village Chassagne-Montrachet has the added bonus of containing a good proportion, up to a third, of premier cru grapes. Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
