Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru

Variety

Chardonnay

The premier cru Morgeot is the largest in Chassagne and is made up of multiple small plots that can be labeled either as Morgeot or carry their own names. Tête du Clos is a designated parcel within Morgeot located higher up on the slope. This cuvée always carries the most tension and energy of all the Dancer 1er crus, with the acidity and richness perfectly balanced.
