Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge, - 2005 - Domaine Jean-Marc Morey
Ref: A024205
This red Chassagne has a lovely ripe raspberry fruitiness on the palate with a good depth in its medium body. It has that slight earthiness typical of Chassagne. The tannins are still there and will need another year to begin to round out. There is wonderful definition and extract at work here. Drink 2008 to 2011.

Jean-Marc, now ably assisted by his daughter, Caroline, is really back on form. After a run of tragedies in the early 1990’s (when he lost his wife to a tragic illness and, shortly after, an old friend and employee was killed in a tractor accident) Jean-Marc has rebuilt his life and has re-emerged as one of the leading lights in the village of Chassagne.

Using only indigenous yeasts for the fermentation, maximum lees-contact prior to the first racking, 15% new oak casks and, above all, early bottling in September, this father and daughter team have managed to achieve a range of reds and whites that exhibit a purity of rich fruit (coupled with a mouth-tingling freshness) that is rare to find.
