Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc 1er Cru Clos St Jean, Domaine Thomas Morey 2023
Domaine Thomas Morey
Domaine Thomas Morey is a family owned estate based in Chassagne Montrachet, representing the modern evolution of one of Burgundy’s most respected winegrowing families. Thomas Morey established his domaine in 2007 after working alongside his father at Domaine Bernard Morey, choosing to focus on meticulous parcel selection and precise vineyard farming across Chassagne Montrachet, Saint Aubin and surrounding appellations. The estate is known for its rigorous attention to detail in the vineyard, with sustainable viticulture and careful soil management aimed at preserving balance and site transparency. In the cellar, Thomas Morey employs a restrained approach, using indigenous fermentations, measured oak influence and long élevage to emphasise purity, texture and the structural identity of each climat.
Chassagne Montrachet 1er Cru Clos Saint Jean Blanc is a Chardonnay sourced from one of the appellation’s most highly regarded Premier Cru sites, situated on limestone and clay soils that deliver both power and precision. The vineyard is carefully managed with low yields and meticulous canopy work to ensure optimal ripening while retaining natural acidity and structural tension. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels, followed by élevage on fine lees to build texture, depth and complexity. A proportion of new oak is used to support structure and longevity without obscuring the clarity of fruit or mineral expression. The wine shows a layered profile of citrus oil, ripe pear and white peach alongside hazelnut, acacia blossom and crushed stone. The palate is concentrated yet finely balanced, with a dense mineral core, bright acidity and a long, saline finish that reflects the power and refinement of Clos Saint Jean.
