The Story
This beautifully balanced wine has concentrated aromas of honey, white fruit and flowers. Full-bodied, rich and powerful, this wine will develop in the bottle for 10 to 15 years.
Serve with rich appetizers including foie gras, or fish or shellfish in cream sauce.
95 Points - James Suckling
A very sophisticated Chassagne-Montrachet. Less aromatically extravagant than most of the 2019 white Burgundies, this opens slowly as it aerates in the glass. So many nuances of white fruit and jasmine. Ripe and rich, but very elegant, with a suave and supple texture that makes it glide over your palate. Drink or hold.
93 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Clos de la Chapelle (Duc de Magenta) is another success, offering up aromas of crisp stone fruit, orange oil, buttered toast, struck flint and iodine. Medium to full-bodied, deep and complete, it's a satiny, layered, textural wine, with bright acids and a long, expansive finish. Best after 2025.
