Must-see Maison Morey-coffinet 'climat Du Val' 1er Cru Auxey-duresses 2020 Special: 60% Discount [6O4gZChv]

Morey-Coffinet was founded in the late 1970s by Michel Morey (son of the late Marc Morey) and his wife Fabienne (from the Pillot clan). Their son, Thibault, succeeded the couple, taking the helm of the estate in 2009. Thibault joined his father in a long lineage of winemakers in Chassagne-Montrachet with great gravitas in their family names such as Pillot, Morey, and Coffinet. He has earned the respect of his peers through his thoughtful and detailed approach. In 2014, he began to pursue biodynamic viticulture, and in 2015 gained certification.

With a stable foundation of 1er Crus from the southeast-facing hillside, the whites speak to the very essence of Chassagne, with fragrant aromas framed by powerful minerality. The reds capture the roasted, muscular aromas of Chassagne terroir and display silky texture and balance. “When the vines are properly cared for, you can take everything from the skin to the seed,” says Thibault, continuing, “it is a guarantee of complexity and stability in the wine, which will age all the better with moderate doses of SO2.” The oak regimen changes yearly to reflect the vintage, and the aromatics of the wines are expressive and vibrant, with lively tension and energy. All wines are bottled without filtration.

Thibault continues to evolve the quality of his domaine to a whole different level producing expressive wines of extraordinary complexity and weight. With his organic certification, the wines are now reaching the pinnacle of their appellations; refined, with gorgeous aromatics and texture. Here in the Côte de Beaune, Thibault crafts wines that are nothing less than profound.
