The JM Fourrier 1er Cru Morgeot is an aromatic delight with an inviting nose of lemon, honeysuckle, and acacia. The floral aromas resolve on the elegantly textured palate with soft, fleshy stone fruits, and round-edged citrus. This well-refined Chassagne-Montrachet offers a sumptuous mouthfeel, persistent flavour, and great length.

Another terrific success for the flagship estate (a 92-acre vineyard situated on the famed limestone and clay-rich slopes of Cote Pavie) of Chantal and Gerard Perse, the 2011 Pavie is composed of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. 2011 may be the biggest, richest, most massive wine of the vintage. With thrilling levels of concentration, tremendous purity, high but sweet tannin, a skyscraper-like mouthfeel, and terrific intensity, depth and palate presence, this larger-than-life effort will require 5-8 years of cellaring, and should age effortlessly over the following 25-30 years.

Champ Gain, a prestigious east-facing climat, is situated in the northern part of Puligny-Montrachet, near Meursault. The wines are celebrated for their refined bouquets, delicate floral notes, and hints of minerality. On the palate, you can expect to find vibrant citrus, creamy textures, finesse, and freshness. In French, ‘Champ Gain’ is said to mean ‘reclaimed field’, or that the vineyard has been reclaimed from the forest.
