Jasper Morris: 92-95 Points

Picked between 2nd and 5th September. A very pretty clean lemon and lime. The oak is very well integrated into the classy nose. Plenty of energy but also light on its feet for Morgeot without betraying the appellation and the fruit persists particularly well on the palate.

Wine Advocate: 92-94 Points

Aromas of honeyed orchard fruits buttery pastry peaches toasted nuts and spices introduce the 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Marquis de Laguiche a medium to full-bodied ample and satiny wine that's rich glossy and unctuous with all the fat and texture typical of this bottling. This historic Beaune négociant house is also an important proprietor in its own right and one that's only growing with the acquisition last year of 20 additional hectares located in Saint-Romain and Saint-Véran. The Drouhin family remains committed to the ideal of elegance and the 2022 vintage has played into their hands in that respect producing a crop of sensual charming wines that come warmly recommended. Robert Drouhin told me that they're planning to extend white wine élevage?which I might have the temerity to suggest complementing with a more reductive handling in the cellar as I have tended to find recent vintages of the Laguiche Montrachet more glorious in the flush of youth than after a decade in the cellar.

Vinous: 91-93 Points

The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot 1er Cru (Marquis de Laguiche) picked September 2 to 5 has a delineated bouquet with apple blossom peach skin and light honeysuckle aromas that bloom in the glass. The palate is well-balanced with good substance and a better acidic spine than the preceding Meursault Genevrières. There is commendable weight and depth on the finish. Drink over the next 12 to 15 years. (Drink between 2025-2038)
