The soil in parts of Morgeot is better suited to red grapes and numerous producers still comply with this centuries old tradition. Very popular in France and great value.

Deeply coloured for 2021. Bright and vibrant. Nose of ripe red cherry, cherry pits and a touch of charcuterie like savouriness. The palate is silky, layered with a fine intensity. Really very seductive. A little smoke mingles with the fresh fruit before the wine closes with refined tannins. If you are not familiar with Morgeot rouge this is a great place to start.

The latest vintage is 2021. Most of you will know what a difficult vintage it was and how frost had such a bit impact on cropping levels. Whites were particularly affected and production was a tiny fraction of the norm. The domaine has advised that the production shortfall for Premier Cru whites was 80% in 2021. Thus we do not have a lot of bottles to offer.
