St. Aubin 1er Cru Charmois

This Saint-Aubin pairs beautifully with dishes such as scallop tartare, veal sweetbreads, creamy poultry with chanterelles, and lobster with beurre blanc. Its balance of richness and acidity complements both seafood and white meats.

Sourced from the Les Charmois climat in Saint-Aubin, the vineyard is situated at an altitude of approximately 260–270 meters, with east-facing slopes and clay-limestone soils. The vines, planted in 1990 and 2000, are managed with sustainable practices, ensuring low yields and healthy, balanced grapes.

Having spent 10 months in barrel, the wine was then racked, fined and filtered, prior to being bottled.

The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo direct pressing of whole bunches. Fermentation is spontaneous, occurring in 350L French oak barrels, with 20% new oak. The wine is aged on fine lees for 18 months, unfined and unfiltered, and bottled on a fruit day in February 2024.

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.
