The finest sites of Chassagne’s 1er Cru Morgeot (where 20 separate lieux-dits can be bottled) lie in the upper sector, above the main road on the poorer, white soils. Les Fairendes is one of these sites. Thierry Pillot once told us that his grandfather used to say this vineyard—situated just below Les Caillerets—was the finest terroir within Morgeot (Pillot has no holding here, so we can take his word to be impartial). The wine is typically far from your average Morgeot. True to form, it is an incredibly mineral wine: chalky, driven, powerful and long.

Reviews

“A full yellow colour with a layer of oak evident on the nose, again a question of where we are at the moment, not where we will finish. Pure white fruit beneath, a fine clean thread of acidity, this fills the mouth with high class fruit, and for a long time. Very promising!”
92-94 points, Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
