  Tasted alongside the Les Vergers. Because I have seemingly been preferring White Burgundies from higher altitudes with a little more raciness and finesse, I thought I would have preferred the Les Vergers, but I was wrong. The Morgeot showed aromas of ripe orchard fruit, lemon, baking spice, grilled bread (seems there may have been a touch more oak here than the Les Vergers), white flowers and minerality. Medium-full bodied and richer than the Les Vergers, this showed wonderful charm and finesse with good supporting acidity with orchard and stone fruit on the palate. Quite good length with a minerally finish. Good now, but should be able to hold for a number of years if your willing to play the premox game.
