DMAINE. BERTHELEMOT CHASSAGNE-MONTRACHET 1ER ABBAYE DE MORGEOT ltd
Complex aromas of almonds, orchard fruits, white flowers and honey. The palate is full of both richness and minerality perfectly balanced which characterise the wines from this terroir.
The Cistercian monks from the Abbey of Maizières established an annex around 1150 in Morgeot, a hamlet located south of Chassagne-Montrachet. In the 15th century, the village was devastated by the French King's army because the inhabitants remained loyal to Mary of Burgundy. Since then, only the ruins of the Chapel remain, located at the foot of the Abbaye de Morgeot climat. The soils are composed of clay and silt and have a red hue due to the presence of iron oxide. Berthelemot have a plot located at the bottom of the hillside, at between 230 and 240 metres above sea level, producing wines that are rich and powerful and age well. The area is prone to frost and so require special attention
