The 2014 Chassagne Montrachet Morgeot 1er Cru has a fragrant and crisp bouquet with touches of white flowers infusing the citrus fruit that is nicely defined. The palate is well defined with citrus lemon, orange zest and spice, nicely weighted in the mouth with a touch of lemongrass on the finish. This represents one of Remoissenet’s best 2014 whites.

"Tasting note: A completely different nose presents itself here with its notes of ripe and ever-so-slightly exotic dried yellow fruit and soft citrus scents. There is good richness to the textured and generously proportioned flavors that possess fine volume and a touch of muscle before culminating in a sappy and lingering finish. This frank effort is very Morgeot in character." Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, Issue 59

The 2009 Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot was aged in 100% new oak barrels (350 liters) but here, too, the oak is exceptionally well-integrated. It is a gorgeous wine endowed with notable purity and finesse in its textured fruit and bright floral notes. The Morgeot shows off considerable sophistication. White stones fruit and flowers add the final layers of complexity on the textured finish. The Morgeot shows a richer and bigger personality than the Maltroye. Anticipated maturity: 2013+. This is a thrilling set of whites from Remoissenet. I have to say, I expected a little more when I tasted the 2009 reds from bottle earlier this year given the significant investments that have taken place here over the last few years. To be fair, though, I liked the 2008 reds I tasted better. But it is with these 2009 whites that the Remoissenet truly shows its potential. This is a fabulous lineup, notable for both its consistency throughout the range as well as for a number of ridiculously priced bargains. It seems pretty clear that winemaker Claudine Jobard has a special touch when it comes to whites. Readers should do whatever they can to check out the marvelous wines. Remoissenet began picking on September 20, very late by the standards of 2009. The wines are rich, ripe and sensual but not at all overdone. A number of the wines were aged partially or entirely in 350 liter barrels, which helped maintain an element of freshness. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to taste the 2010s as they were still in malo, but I did taste a handful of 2008s. Stylistically the Remoissenet wines (both white and red) tend towards the richer end of the spectrum.Importers: Simon N Cellars, Charlottesville, VA; tel.
