Tim Atkin, 94 Points  

"Pure and effusive, this shows toasted hazelnuts, pear confit, lemon zest and quinine. The palate feels satiny and palate-coating before it glides into a satisfyingly dry and crunchy finish. These vines were planted in 2004." 

Vinous, 92-94 Points 

"The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Abbaye de Morgeot 1er Cru has a wonderful, lively bouquet with effervescent white peach, quince, citrus peel and lemon thyme scents, a sense of mineralité surfacing with aeration. The palate is very well-balanced with fine delineation. There’s complex and captivating mineral-rich citric fruit with seamlessly integrated oak on the finish. This is one of my picks from the Domaine in this vintage." 

Jasper Morris, 91-94 Points 

"A fine pale lemon. The bouquet is delicious, refined gentle orchard fruit, with a little reduction too, quite refined citrus notes, but pure white fruit too. This is not a massive Morgeot, though there is adequate structure behind. Drink from 2028-2034." 

Wine Advocate, 91-94 Points 

"The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Abbaye de Morgeot is sensual and charming, offering up aromas of peach, hazelnuts, white flowers, baking spices and iodine. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and suave, with a fleshy core of fruits racy acids and a saline finish, this will offer a broad drinking window." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"A highlight in the PYCM range, this is a tiny Premier Cru that is based around an historic Abbey and is entirely contained within Morgeot proper. It's considered slightly superior than its neighbors, and is capable of producing rich, spicy Chardonnays."
