The 2016 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot (Marquis de Laguiche) was affected by the frost, and hence 50% of the fruit was lost. The nose is pleasant with scents of white peach and citrus lemon, although it does not quite have the vigor of the Embasees. The palate is well balanced with a ripe, sorbet-fresh entry of orange and pear, quite energetic toward the finish that fans out in confident fashion. This gets better with acquaintance and deserves a couple of years once in bottle.

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2012 tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot has an attractive bouquet with hints of almond and freshly baked popcorn lending the nose a mote of exoticism without detracting from terroir expression. The palate is well balanced with pineapple and citrus peel on the entry. This demonstrates admirable fruit concentration and it gains weight towards the slightly waxy textured finish. This is a well-crafted Chassagne that should delight over the next 6-8 years.

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot 2011 has an outgoing and expressive bouquet with touches of tropical fruit infusing the citrus lemon and lime flower aromas. With further aeration there are hints of white peach and pink grapefruit emerging. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry with a slightly waxy texture, but the finish comes across as smudged and missing the tension that the aromatics deserve.
