Drouhin's 2014 Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Marquis de Laguiche has a crisp, vivacious bouquet with scents of Golden Delicious, white peach and subtle mineral scents. The palate is fresh and crisp on the entry, quite compact at this youthful stage with a waxy-textured, quite pithy finish that at least retains commendable definition. Very fine and it improved with aeration.

About this wine
Joseph Drouhin is a renowned wine producer based in Burgundy, France. The Chassagne-Montrachet "Marquis de Laguiche" Morgeot 1er Cru is one of their most sought-after wines. This wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Morgeot vineyard, which is located in the southern part of the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation.
The history of Joseph Drouhin dates back to the 19th century when the family started producing wines in the Beaune region of Burgundy. Over the years, they have expanded their vineyards to include some of the most prestigious appellations in Burgundy, including Chassagne-Montrachet. Today, the company is run by the fourth generation of the Drouhin family, who continue to produce exceptional wines that reflect the terroir of Burgundy.
The Chassagne-Montrachet "Marquis de Laguiche" Morgeot 1er Cru is a white wine that is known for its elegance and complexity. The grapes are handpicked and carefully sorted to ensure only the best fruit is used in the wine. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for 12 to 15 months, which gives it a rich, creamy texture and subtle notes of vanilla and toast.
The Morgeot vineyard is located on a south-facing slope, which means the grapes receive plenty of sunlight throughout the day. This results in ripe, juicy grapes that are full of flavour. The soil in the vineyard is rich in limestone, which gives the wine its minerality and crisp acidity.
The Chassagne-Montrachet "Marquis de Laguiche" Morgeot 1er Cru is a wine that can be enjoyed young, but it also has the potential to age for many years. As it ages, the wine develops more complex flavours and aromas, making it a great choice for collectors.
Overall, the Chassagne-Montrachet "Marquis de Laguiche" Morgeot 1er Cru is a wine that showcases the best of Burgundy. It is a wine that is elegant, complex, and full of flavour, and it is sure to impress even the most discerning wine con
