Domaine Vincent & Sophie Morey Chassagne Montrachet Les Embrazées Premier Cru 2021 France

GW says: Chassagne-Montrachet Les Embrazées Premier Cru, Domaine Vincent & Sophie Morey is a white Burgundy with serious pedigree and a playful edge—this is classic Chardonnay with a Chassagne twist. Elegant, expressive, with aroma of white flowers and an indulgence that hints at secret garden parties. Quite feminine and of great delicacy, it wears its minerality like a silk scarf.

Grape: 100% Chardonnay

Appearance: Pale gold with green reflections

Aroma: White flowers, citrus zest, a touch of vanilla and toasted hazelnut

Palate: Creamy peach and apricot kissed with limestone, a dash of white pepper, and a hint of honeyed oak. Aged in 40% new oak barrels for about 10 months, it strikes a lovely balance: each sip feels like a gentle stroll through a sun-dappled vineyard at harvest time.
