One of the seven Grand Crus of Chablis, Preuses is known for its intense floral and mineral character. Gautheron's is deep and brilliant, with Grand Cru richness cut by classical Chablisien stones. Morris found it, "spicy behind and now with some much richer fruit, certainly fresh apricots, and a start of peaches. Very juicy and delicious." Less (-) Free US Shipping | ||

Look up “Thomas Morey” in the proverbial Ansonia winemaker dictionary, and you’ll find words… More (+) Look up “Thomas Morey” in the proverbial Ansonia winemaker dictionary, and you’ll find words like “deliberate,” “thoughtful,” “minimalist,” “precise.” Morey’s cellar style is as clean and detailed as his wire rimmed glasses and his Zalto stemware. You might imagine a hot dry year like 2022 would threaten to blur his crisp, focused style, but Morey has turned in a classic vintage, and each cuvée perfectly reflects its terroir.
The vines in Chassagne 1er cru Embrazées are 63 years old, planted by Thomas’s grandfather in a field that had been abandoned after phylloxera. The 2022 is a stunner – long and lithe with deep fruit channeled beautifully into a concentrated core that ripples with energy and intensity. Morey’s usual restraint is in effect, and the wine is rich without an ounce of heaviness. Less (-) Free US Shipping | ||

Chassagne 1er cru Morgeot, further down the slope, has more sun and more clay, and produces bolder wine that’s no less charming. Morey’s cuvée is a blend of two plots in the Morgeot sector, and it’s exceptional in 2022. Jasper Morris awarded 94-96 points and 5/5 stars, calling it “spectacular.” He writes “the bouquet indicates a wealth of fruit to come, and so it does, in several waves across the palate. This has layers of fruit waiting to develop over many years to come.” Less (-) Free US Shipping | ||
