Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Rouge

Information

Description

Fontaine-Gagnard's Morgeot Rouge is a Pinot Noir from the Les Chaumes lieu-dit within this Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru. The place name refers to land that remained uncultivated for a long period. The southeast-facing parcel has shallow, freely draining soil with small stones. In the cellar, the wine follows the estate's method, using indigenous yeasts and maturation in oak barrels. Its aromatic profile suggests wild red berries, while the palate is full-bodied and powerful. The combination of origin and structure defines this red expression of Morgeot in the domaine's range.
