Domaine Marc Morey Chassagne Montrachet Les Virondots 1er Cru 2010
Puligny Montrachet, Côte de Beaune, Côte d'Or, Burgundy, FranceDomaine Marc Morey is located in Chassagne and is run by Bernard Mollard and Marie-Jo Mollard-Morey along with daughter Sabine who has assumed much of the winemaking responsibility. The style remains Morey - elegant, perfumed wines that have the ability to improve with age. The nose is intense with inviting citrus, nutty/hazelnut aromas and flavours with plenty of minerality across the palate. Dry and elegant it cries for seafood now and another three to five years in bottle. Vinification is traditional, with minimal battonage and 11 months in 30% new oak barrels.Tasted: 14 April 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $90.00 | 750ml | N/A - estimated retail price |
