Tasting notes
Luminous gold in the glass, this Grand Cru Chardonnay opens with layered aromas of white peach, toasted hazelnut, and fresh brioche, underpinned by a streak of wet stone minerality. On the palate, it delivers remarkable concentration and precision, ripe citrus, almond cream, and honeyed pear balanced by vibrant acidity. The oak integration is seamless, lending texture without weight, while the finish is long, saline, and persistently mineral.

Key characteristics
About this wine
Thomas Morey produces this Chardonnay from Bâtard-Montrachet, one of Burgundy's grand cru vineyards straddling Puligny and Chassagne-Montrachet on the Côte de Beaune. It sits at the top tier of white Burgundy, made in the grand cru idiom of concentration and ageing potential.
Expect a dense, powerful white with ripe orchard and stone fruit, a broad, textured palate and the kind of mineral spine that grand cru sites are known for. Serve at 12-14°C with lobster, turbot or other rich seafood dishes that can meet its weight without being overwhelmed.
