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 riper aromas are composed by notes of white flowers, pear and apple liqueur and subtle matchstick nuances. The overtly rich and seductive flavors possess an almost creamy mid-palate texture that offers reasonably good length if only average depth. Again, this will drink well after only 2 to 3 years of age." AM
Food Pairing
Roasted salmon with Asian sesame sauce.
