Domaine Marc Morey
Domaine Marc Morey was founded just after the first world war by Fernand Morey. The first vineyard holdings comprised just a couple of hectares in Chassagne-Montrachet. Marc Morey took over in 1944 following his father's death when he quickly expanded the property. He started to bottle directly at the Domaine and Marc Morey et Fils rapidly became a well respected name in the village. Marc's daughter Marie-Josephine and her husband Bernard joined the family business in 1977. Today Marc's grand-daughter Sabine Mollard is in charge of the estate and has been the winemaker since 2003.
Description
The Rully 1er Cru Rabourcé 2022 from Domaine Marc Morey is a textbook expression of Côte Chalonnaise Chardonnay: precise, bright, and layered. The nose offers aromas of white flowers, crisp green apple, lemon zest, and toasted hazelnut. The palate is lively yet textured, combining citrus and orchard fruit with a subtle creaminess, finishing with a saline minerality and refreshing length.
Food Pairing
A versatile Chardonnay that pairs beautifully with roast chicken, creamy risottos, shellfish, seared scallops, and soft cheeses. Its mineral backbone also complements grilled vegetables and richer fish dishes.
