Thomas Morey Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Baudines 2022

產地：France
產區：Burgundy Chassagne-Montrachet

Thomas Morey Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Les Baudines 2022 exemplifies the tenth-generation winemaker's signature "fine-boned" style—described by Burgundy expert Jasper Morris MW as "very representative of Thomas Morey's" approach. The cousin of Caroline Morey (of acclaimed Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey), Thomas established his estate in 2006 in his grandfather's historic cellar, now certified organic as of 2023.

Premier Cru Purity

Les Baudines lies in Chassagne-Montrachet's prestigious white wine sector, where Thomas farms 13 hectares across 57 plots using zero herbicides, pesticides, or artificial fertilizers—the "old-school approach" his grandparents practiced. The Chardonnay ferments spontaneously in French oak (maximum 15% new) before aging 16-18 months on fine lees without bâtonnage, bottled without fining for maximum texture.

Delicate Power

Jasper Morris MW awarded 94 points, while critics consistently score 90+ across vintages. The wine offers great delicacy, elegance, and minerality—combining understated precision with beautiful vivacity in its youth. Aromas reveal white button mushrooms, wet stone, smoke, and lemon juice, while the palate delivers racy tension rather than the rounder style of his father's wines. The 2022 vintage shows acidity conducive to excellent cellar aging.
