Cane sugar on the nose. lively acidity on the palate, it has lots of power though. Rich and round brioche, toasted bread and flavors of almond paste- marzipan. The texture of syrup, fruit jelly and grape concentrate. Rich and powerful yet with lovely purity on the finish.
Vincent et Sophie Morey Description
Sophie and Vincent Morey both come from families of winegrowers in Santenay and Chassagne-Montrachet respectively. After studies at Beaune’s Lycée Viticole and work experience in St-Emilion in the Bordeaux region, Vincent rejoined the family domaine led by his father Bernard Morey in 1986. In the same year Sophie was vinifying her first vintage for the Ménager-Belland domaine in Santenay where she had inherited the tradition of winemaking from her mother. Finally, in 2006 Sophie and Vincent set up their own domaine and had their first harvest in 2007. Treating their vineyards as if they were gardens, Sophie and Vincent agree that fine wines start with good grapes, require attention to detail, and demand the winegrower and winemaker to be adaptable vintage after vintage.
Wine Spectator: 91 Points
This is rich, open-knit and expressive, offering peach, lemon curd, vanilla and toasty oak flavors, all nicely integrated. Elegant and yet persistent, this leaves a floral element on the lingering aftertaste.
Burghound: 90 Points
A subtle but not invisible application of wood surrounds the ripe yet fresh and airy aromas of crushed fennel, lemon confit and a floral top note. There is fine richness and volume to the borderline creamy middle weight flavors that possess a sappy mouthfeel while a moderately prominent bead of minerality adds to the appeal of the citrusy finish.
