WINE DESCRIPTION

Morey-Coffinet Chassagne Montrachet 'Les Houillères' is a premium white wine produced by the renowned winemaker Morey-Coffinet in the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation of Burgundy, France. The wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Les Houillères vineyard, which is known for its limestone-rich soil and ideal south-east facing slope. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques such as hand-harvesting, gentle pressing, and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of the Chardonnay grape, with notes of citrus, white flowers, and a subtle minerality. It is a perfect match for seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Morey-Coffinet Chassagne Montrachet 'Les Houillères' is a complex and powerful white Burgundy with a delightful bouquet of ripe apricot, peach, honey, lemon, and nutmeg.The palate is creamy and rich, with a deep and savory core of vibrant acidity, mineral-driven structure, and a savory nutty finish. This is a great example of the outstanding terroir of the Chassagne Montrachet, and a must-try for Burgundy aficionados.
