Caroline Morey Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Chenevottes

Medium pale yellow gold with green tint. Lemon, lemon peel, stone fruits, white flowers, hazelnut, honeycomb and minerality. Medium to medium-full bodied, medium-high acidity, medium-high strucuture, medium alcohol and long finish. Complex, elegant and graceful. Well balanced and lots of finesse. On the feminine side. Owner opened it hours before serving. Wine still youthful and would improve over the next 10 years.

Very good and clearly rather concentrated, but other than that nothing special to me. Balance wasnt great, almost getting some bitterness. All in all, a really nice wine.

2014 vintage

Another great ‘14. Last one. Strong PYCM influence on the style. Excellent!

3M tape on the nose, which may indicate a slight VA issue, it fades away as the wine gets to room temperature. Red delicious apple, lemon and great acidity on the backend. Grapefruit with a hint of butter on the ending. Great, late acid on this one.

2014 vintage

Magnum, opened 30 minutes, perfect cork and level - pale, but leggy; orchard fruit and lemon curd, wuite rich and complex; medium, long, persistent, oily concentration, less complex on palate and slightly tight, upside when fully mature, 8 years. F (17.5).

2014 vintage

Very good nose Green apple, apricot, grapefruit Hazelnut minerals Long finish Very good white

2014 vintage

Drinking well. Tart linear citrus with good mouthfeel and concentration. Best of 4 white burgs tonight— Maltroye 2013 Grand Ruchottes and Dent de Chein, and the B Moreau 2013 Vergers.

2014 vintage

Number two down. A deeper yellow suggesting some advancement in this bottle. Definitely not Premox’d but adds some ripe yellow orchard fruit to the intriguing white orchard fruit. Excellent concentration and delicious. Day 2 even better. Suggest if you have it’s time to open.

2014 vintage

Mycket stor fruktig doft med grillad citron, exotisk lite syrlig frukt och mineral. Smaken är fyllig, fet mineralisk med underbar explosiv syra, fatig med antydan till vanilj, exotisk frukt och citrus. Långt mineraliskt slut.

Saw this on the shelf at my local wine shop. Looked it up on CellarTracker and saw these great reviews. Bought a couple of bottles. I decided after thinking about it... “when will I run across more 2014 Burgs with a nice rating”, went back and bought four more bottles, not having one yet. Had the first one tonight. Popped and poured and was immediately disappointed. I thought “this taste like a good Burgogne, nothing special. What’s all the fuss?” …

This is just incredible. As good as a Chassagne 1er Cru can get.

2014 vintage

Intense 24K gold color, darker than I'd have guessed but no obvious signs of prem-ox in the nose, although a bit short on fruit, so maybe a little?? Certainly darker than other '14's opened in the past year or so. I think I'm going to shake it up a bit and see if anything changes. Shaken not stirred. No prem-ox at all. A little air helped coax it out from a tight acid shell. White orchard fruit, buttery oak influence …

2014 vintage

Lovely out of the gate, but the pleasure drops off slightly with air, with the nose showing a little simply and overly fruit-focused. More fun on the palate - full of flavourful extract - but lacks some of the sparkle and vivacity we expect from a 2014. Apple juice and biscuity on the finish. Still good, but I would prefer more energy here. Gets flatter with the second glass. I don't detect any TCA, might this be slightly oxidised...

2014 vintage

Really luv this Chassagne...beautiful nose, drank 2nd half next day...even better

2014 vintage

Creamy virgin white goodness

2014 vintage

Terrific blend of fruit and savory. Creamy texture with lemon, lemon leaf and basil with a lightly metallic note on the finish. Still evolving.

2014 vintage

Very similar to PYCM in character, with a luscious lemon cream texture and compact, balanced fruit. This is still super young and linear but nice. Will likely improve.

2014 vintage

Youthful, full nose. Yellow orchard fruit and melon. Also nutty, and gently oaky with good depth. Hints of minerality. Fullish, rich and balanced palate. Very well dimensioned. Pure. Gently oaky, a bit smoky, yellow orchard fruit. Lovely acidity and length bodes well for cellaring. Only lacks some majestic fullness for the really great.

2014 Caroline Morey Wines (Dig Wines, San Francisco) : Almost identical in aromatics, weight, and structure to the Champs-Gains, although the sulfur is less distracting. Both of these wines are good but hardly special.

2014 vintage

This is stellar Chenevottes. All you can ever want in a Chassagne. Zest, zing and depth. Love.

2014 vintage

TOPBOURGOGNES (whites) (Tasting @ restaurant Fitzgerald , Rotterdam) : Reserved lime nose of finesse. On the palate lively, vibrant and refined stony yellow fruits, balanced by fine precise acidity. Very long, with an intense mineral finish.
