Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 20 Jan 22
The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Les Fairendes is seamless and charming, revealing aromas of white flowers, peach, crisp yellow orchard fruit and hazelnuts. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, with a fleshy core of fruit and lively acids, it concludes with a long, penetrating finish.
