The 2009 Olivier Leflaive Abbaye de Morgeot, Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru is a white wine made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes sourced from the vineyard Abbaye de Morgeot, in the glorious Côte de Beaune, Burgundy. This tiny plot is located in the lower slopes of the Côte d’Or, a particularly suited position for both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir cultivation.
The plot is also one of the most important sources of grapes for Olivier Leflaive, a rockstar negocià nt winemaker specialised in high-end Chardonnay white wines. Instead of just purchasing the grapes, Domaine Olivier Leflaive use their own team of pickers during harvest to ensure the highest standard of care and quality is maintained during the whole process.
This 2009 Olivier Leflaive Abbaye de Morgeot, Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Cru features mineral notes, white fruit and citrus, loyal to the estate’s trademark of elegance and finesse, rather than power and ostentatiousness. The food pairing options reflects the trend as well, with seafood, sushi, vegetables and soft cheese being among the most suitable recommendations.
