There's only one 350-liter barrel of the 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot, but the resulting wine is lovely, revealing aromas of pear, orange oil, nutmeg and clove, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and seamless palate. Unfortunately, I imagine securing even a bottle or two will be a considerable challenge.

The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot unwinds in the glass with aromas of pear, citrus zest, fresh mint and warm bread. Medium to full-bodied, rich and concentrated, its satiny attack segues into a layered, tightly wound core framed by bright acids and chalky structuring extract. As ever, it's a benchmark rendition of this site.

Aromas of pear, honeyed peaches, beeswax, fresh apricot and buttery pastry introduce the 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot, a medium to full-bodied, concentrated and textural wine that's built around serious reserves of dry extract and impressively lively acids. With structuring phenolics from ripe skins and prodigious concentration, this evokes Moreau's fine 2015 Morgeot.

The 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot was one of the more reserved wines in the cellar when I tasted it, unwinding with notes of pear, peach, white flowers, mint and petrol. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, textural and precise, but needs time to fill out. Of course, that sense of reserve at this early stage is full of promise for the future.

Moreau's 2017 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot has turned out brilliantly, unfurling in the glass with an incipiently complex bouquet of pear, white flowers, blanched almonds, lime zest and iodine. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and multidimensional, with superb concentration, excellent tension at the core and a long, racy finish. This is the finest Morgeot I've tasted from the 2017 vintage. And as I wrote last year, this is very much a wine to forget in the cellar while drinking the domaine's more precocious premiers crus, as it is built for the long haul.
