This was very good. I thought there was a touch too much oak on the nose at first, but that lifted a bit to show nice savoury notes of mushrooms and earth, some chalky mineral and cream, and then typical Chassagne tones of apples, honey and a bit of spice. A very attractive nose. The palate also needed some time to come together. It had typical Morgeot depth in its fleshy white fruited attack, some really bright 2007 acidity after that, and nice lemony flavours on the midpalate. However, these stuck out a bit in rather disjointed bits, only really coming together as the wine warmed up a little in the glass and had a bit air. With time, there was a better sense of integration, especially towards the lovely long finish that showed a savoury mineral undertow beneath some creamy, oaky accents. Overall, a really nice wine if rather ungainly in its youth. I think it will develop very nicely over the next three to four years and go on for far longer than that though. As a bonues, this went beautifully with some Morels in cream. (Cellartracker) (Cellartracker)
