Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Les Embrazées Domaine Morey Thomas, 2023

Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Embrazées from Domaine Morey Thomas is a refined white Burgundy that captures both the depth and precision the appellation is known for. Sourced from one of Chassagne’s distinguished Premier Cru sites, it offers the kind of layered, site-driven character that makes fine Burgundy so compelling.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a bright golden hue with youthful freshness. The nose is typically elegant and expressive, with notes of citrus blossom, ripe orchard fruit, white peach, and subtle toasted hazelnut, often supported by delicate vanilla or mineral nuances from élevage. On the palate, it should feel concentrated yet finely balanced, combining ripe fruit, lively acidity, and a saline mineral core. The finish is usually long and structured, with enough depth to suggest excellent development over time. While already appealing in youth, this wine should reward cellaring for several years as it gains complexity and textural richness.

Production
Les Embrazées is a Premier Cru vineyard in Chassagne-Montrachet, a commune celebrated for producing some of Burgundy’s most complete and expressive white wines. The terroir is shaped by limestone-rich soils that lend tension and minerality, while the 2023 vintage brings the promise of ripe fruit and freshness. Domaine Morey Thomas is known for careful vineyard work and thoughtful vinification aimed at preserving the identity of each parcel.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, lobster, scallops, turbot, creamy risottos, and fine cheeses such as Comté or aged Gruyère. Serve chilled, ideally around 11–13°C, and consider brief decanting if the wine is still very youthful to help it open up in the glass.
