Shared at an offline in Brighton, Michigan during MO'COOL weekend. Strong lanolin and vanillin notes blending with light lemon/lemon curd note. Balanced and enough acid to give it some pleasing backbone. Really tasty and elegant. This was compared to a Domaine du Chateau de Chassagne-Montrachet Chassagne-Montrachet from the same vintage. Some preferred the wine from Chateau Chassagne-Montrachet but I definitely preferred the Morgeot. It was also well appreciated by the host of the party whose palate I respect. My only regret is that I have only one bottle of this left. It will elevate whatever occasion with which I grace it.

One of THE best wines I have had in 2013. Like liquid rocks and fruit! A medium to deep gold color. The nose is deep and fresh, sliced apple and other fruits, cut flowers, and striking minerality. The palate is similarly clean and fresh with good tension from the acidity, a piercing but elegant weight. Long and persistent finish. Best white burg all year for me! #wine #burgundy #chardonnay

Immensely wonderful wine with serious energy and personality, but put it away for awhile.

Burgundy 2010 Tasting - Justerini & Brooks, London (London): Tarte and acidic on the palate - lemons and sherbert on the nose with a short finish. Needs time to come together - not sure it has the guts for glory.
