Energy and generosity define the 2022 Joseph Drouhin Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Marquis de Laguiche, which layers pure lemon-lime and ripe stone fruit over a supple, glossy texture. The oak is polished and discreet, framing notes of orchard fruit, pastry and gentle spice, while a firm acid spine keeps this traditionally rich terroir feeling lifted and precise through a long, persistent finish.

Joseph Drouhin’s Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru Morgeot “Marquis de Laguiche” is a Chardonnay drawn from the marl-and-limestone slopes of the Morgeot lieu-dit, blending the village’s saline minerality with generous white-fruit and floral aromas; Drouhin’s élevage (partial new oak and 16–18 months barrel ageing) yields a silky, layered wine showing hawthorn and apricot up front, hints of blond tobacco and spice with a subtle phenolic grip, and the structure to age gracefully for a decade or more.
